Overseas Companies Looking To Set Up in the Uk

Helping businesses setting up in the UK be tax and accounting compliant.

Contact Us

Overseas Companies

Setting up a new stand-alone entity in the UK or a subsidiary of a foreign parent company? We can help you navigate different legislation and tax requirements.

Are you an overseas business looking to set up in the UK and need some advice and guidance? Whether you are looking to develop new products, seeking new suppliers, supporting existing customers or hoping to find new ones, Page Kirk can help you.

As international business grows, the requirement to comply with different legislation in multiple territories places an ever-greater burden on companies. Brexit has added further to this already complex landscape, bringing European trading partners within new, more complicated and sometimes more restrictive regimes.

To reach a wider range of customers and generate higher profits, the most effective solution for many businesses may be to expand to overseas locations.

Accountancy

From incorporating a company in the UK through to tax registration and compliance, Page Kirk can help to make the transition as seamless as possible, enabling you to focus on successfully launching your business in the UK.

We can also help with globally mobile employees which, with the increasing trend for remote working, can add to the complexity businesses may face. We can advise on the Pay As You Earn (PAYE) and compliance implications of non-UK resident employees and directors or UK residents who spend time working overseas.
