Who We Help
We work with creators at every stage, from first paid collaboration through to multi-million view channels running a full production team.
Sole Trader or Limited Company? We'll Guide You
Choosing the right business structure is crucial for tax efficiency and growth. We analyse your income, plans, and lifestyle to recommend whether sole trader or limited company suits you best. Our advice is tailored, not generic.

International Income & Cross-Border Tax for Creators
YouTube pays from the US, TikTok pays from Ireland, a brand deal lands from Dubai and your Patreon settles in dollars. Each of those routes carries its own withholding tax, VAT and currency treatment. We make sure you claim treaty relief where it applies, report foreign income correctly and never pay tax twice on the same pound.

W-8BEN forms and treaty rates so Google withholds 0% instead of 30%.

VAT on digital services
Place-of-supply rules for overseas brands, agencies and subscribers.
