How we work

A simple, transparent process from start to finish

We make international tax simple with a clear, structured process so you know exactly what to expect at every stage.

Fixed fees

Agreed before we start, never revised afterwards. You know the number before you commit, and it does not move because something took longer than expected.

A clear process

You always know which step you are on, what we need from you and what happens next. No silence for three weeks followed by a form you do not understand.

Everything in one portal

Upload documents, sign forms, ask questions and see progress — from Lisbon, Dubai or a train somewhere. Nothing gets posted, nothing gets lost.

International only

We only work with people who travel across borders or hold assets across them. No local bookkeeping, no payroll, no company accounts.

Emma at GTC is excellent with an outstanding knowledge of tax affairs. The service has been professional from start to finish and I cannot fault anything. Her rapid responses at every stage is particularly reassuring during stressful times.

Emma was a fantastic help and very timely with her replies. She really went the extra mile and was happy to answer any questions I had (and there were many!). The price was extremely reasonable and I will be recommending GTC to others.

FAQs

Working with GTC

What makes you different from a normal accountant?

Focus. A good local accountant handles company accounts, payroll, VAT and personal tax for people who live where they work. We do none of that. We do UK tax for people whose lives cross borders, which means residence, treaties, split years and the reliefs that go with them — every day, for every client.

Do you only work with people outside the UK?

How do fixed fees work?

How do I actually work with you day to day?
