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?
Choosing the right structure is crucial for your tax efficiency. Our Accountants for Podcasters in Gosport guide you through the decision. We look at your income, growth plans, and risk tolerance. Here's what we consider:
- Tax efficiency of each structure

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%.

Correct exchange rate treatment on every payout and platform fee.
VAT on digital services
Place-of-supply rules for overseas brands, agencies and subscribers.
Moving abroad
Residency, split-year treatment and non-dom planning for creators relocating.
