How do I switch Accountants?

Q: I am thinking about switching my accountant but don’t know where to start – is this process
complicated?

A: Changing accountants is an easy process. We can write out to your current or previous accountant seeking professional clearance or you can advise you previous accountant that you are moving to our firm. The outgoing accountant is obliged to pass on any information we require once professional clearance is given.

You may also want to contact the old accountant yourself as a courtesy to say that you are switching but other than that the switch over process is completed between the two accountants.
