We work with Xero, QuickBooks, FreeAgent, and Sage — giving you real-time visibility over your finances wherever you are.

Frequently Asked Questions

We operate on fixed monthly fee packages tailored to your specific circumstances.

No. Cedar Blue serves clients across the United Kingdom. The majority of our client relationships are conducted entirely remotely via video call, email, and our cloud accounting platforms. We're set up to work efficiently regardless of your location.

Yes. Cedar Blue Accountants is registered with HMRC as an authorised tax agent and holds a valid Anti-Money Laundering (AML) supervision registration. We are also regulated members of the ICAEW and ACCA, both of which are HMRC-recognised professional bodies.

Making Tax Digital (MTD) is HMRC's programme to digitise the UK tax system. MTD for VAT is already mandatory for all VAT-registered businesses. MTD for Income Tax (MTD ITSA) is being phased in from April 2026 for self-employed individuals and landlords with income over £50,000, extending to £30,000 in 2027. We help clients transition smoothly to MTD-compliant software and processes.

Following your free consultation and agreement of our engagement letter, we can typically onboard new clients within 5–7 business days. For urgent matters — for example, an imminent tax deadline — contact us directly and we will do everything we can to prioritise your case.

We are certified advisers on Xero, QuickBooks Online, FreeAgent, and Sage. If you already use one of these platforms, we integrate seamlessly. If you're not yet on cloud accounting software, we'll recommend and set up the best solution for your business as part of your onboarding.
