Outgrown FreeAgent's year-end filing? Keep the books, file with us

FreeAgent is great for bookkeeping, but its year-end filing is built for micro-entity accounts. If your company needs FRS 102 Section 1A accounts or lets property, connect FreeAgent and we turn its trial balance into your statutory accounts and CT600, then post the year-end journals back.

When FreeAgent's filing isn't enough

FreeAgent's help centre lists the companies its Final Accounts and Corporation Tax filing can't handle. These are the ones we file every day.

FRS 102 Section 1A accounts

Small companies that don't qualify as micro-entities, or that want fuller accounts, need FRS 102 Section 1A. We build them from your FreeAgent figures with the notes and accounting policies, tagged in iXBRL for Companies House. Accounts Production

Property companies

Rental income is taxed as a property business, not trading. We separate it from trading on the CT600 with its own expenses and capital allowances, and file to HMRC. Corporation Tax

Asset sales and gains

Sold a property, vehicle or other asset at a gain? Chargeable gains go into the corporation tax computation and the CT600 with the rest of the year.

Companies limited by guarantee

Clubs, community interest companies and other guarantee companies get accounts with the right members' wording and balance sheet.

I recently used Tax Optimiser for the first time to submit my accounts to Companies House and HMRC, and I’m thoroughly impressed. The platform is remarkably easy to manage, walking you through the entire process without any complex jargon. On top of that, their prices are extremely competitive. It saved me a ton of time and stress—I will definitely be using them again next year.

Zulfiqar Ali Google review

I had next to no confidence that Tax Optimiser could handle accounts submission and Corporation Tax. But I gave it a whirl… Both Companies House and HMRC have initially accepted the submissions… I previously filed on professional software and I paid about £1500. This is dirt cheap.

Robert B Google review

Excellent software. Very affordable if you're doing your own small company accounts. Links with Xero… Tax Optimiser has been a complete life saver for me.

Frequently asked questions

FreeAgent's own year-end filing produces micro-entity (FRS 105) accounts, and FreeAgent lists companies with property income among the cases its Corporation Tax filing doesn't support. If your company needs FRS 102 Section 1A small company accounts, or it lets property, you can keep FreeAgent for your bookkeeping and prepare and file with Tax Optimiser.

No. FreeAgent stays your bookkeeping system. We read its trial balance, and the year-end journals you post from Tax Optimiser go back into FreeAgent so your books match what you filed. Once filed, you can mark the year as filed elsewhere in FreeAgent.

Only the year-end adjustment journals you post from Tax Optimiser, as FreeAgent journals. Your invoices, bills and bank transactions are not changed. FreeAgent doesn't allow journals to bank accounts, so bank adjustments stay in FreeAgent.

No. Connecting FreeAgent is included. You pay £10 + VAT per company when you submit your accounts and CT600, or your credit pack rate if you are an accountant.

No. Connect your FreeAgent practice login once, and your FreeAgent clients are listed and matched to your organisations by Companies House number. Link them in one go and each client's trial balance syncs through your practice connection.
