Doing business in the UK

If your business is expanding into the British market Langdowns DFK can make it easy to establish a UK branch or office. Our credentials are underlined by our membership of the DFK network – an international association of accountants and advisers established more than 50 years ago.

There are various challenges for international businesses operating in the UK, from understanding UK tax law and regulations to the practical problems of managing processes  and teams remotely. Our team is ready to answer those challenges, providing support with everything from bookkeeping and company administration, to provision of office space and reception services.

Once you’re set up, our outsourcing department can take care of your UK bookkeeping and accounting. We’ll also complete all the necessary registrations and returns to HMRC (the UK tax authority) and Companies House, the UK limited company registrar. That includes annual tax returns, if required.

In short, our aim is to make doing business in the UK feel as effortless and profitable as possible – and to give you the on-the-ground contact you need to feel in control.
