Tax Services for Employed Individuals

Straightforward, Stress-Free Tax Support for Employees

Even if you’re employed and taxed under PAYE, there are situations where expert tax advice can help you reduce your liability—or ensure you remain fully compliant with HMRC regulations. BrightBooks Accounting is here to make that process seamless.

When You May Need a Self-Assessment

While most employees don’t need to file a tax return, there are cases where it’s either required or highly beneficial. You may need to file if you:

Have a side business or income as a sole trader or partnership

• Earn significant savings or investment income

• Receive untaxed income from savings, dividends, or shares

Own rental property or land

Live in a household receiving Child Benefit and earn over £60,000

Have overseas income or assets

Have sold or transferred assets such as shares or a second home

Have lived or worked abroad or are non-UK domiciled

Even if it’s not compulsory, voluntarily filing a return may reduce your overall tax liability.
