Offshore accounting · United Kingdom
Offshore accounting support for UK accountancy practices.
Bebaak provides UK accountancy practices with bookkeeping, VAT-return preparation support, management accounts and year-end preparation from India, working in your Xero, QuickBooks or Sage under NDA and a data-processing agreement. Pricing starts with a US$499 audit or trial file, then a shared pod from US$2,500/month (GBP invoicing on request). Your practice reviews and submits.
Who it's for
- Practices with recurring bookkeeping and management-accounts work
- Practices that need capacity for the January self-assessment peak
- Practices comfortable with an offshore team working in their cloud software
Who it's not for
- Engagements that require the provider to be a registered agent or to submit to HMRC — your practice submits
- Clients whose contracts forbid offshore processing

- Work sent at the end of your day is usually back by the next morning.
Tax-season scaling
