  • Tax consulting,
  • Preparation of the final statement of accounts,
  • Plan development, financial analysis,

Documentation Handover for Bookkeeping Agencies

 

According to current regulations, companies are obligated to deliver documentation for entering within three days, and the bookkeeping has additional three days to enter such documentation. However, in practice, companies submit documentation on a monthly or weekly level. Whether the bookkeeper will pick the documentation at client's premises or vice-versa is agreed in the bookkeeping services contract. 

 

Original documentation is the base for entering. Before you deliver it to the bookkeeper, it is advisable to copy all documentation and form your own archive. Especially, in accordance with the Law on Accounting and Audit, Article 9, bookkeeping document may be in electronic form, which some of the bookkeeping agencies started applying lately. 

 

Bookkeeping agencies receive such documentation from their clients that presents business changes in the company of the client. This is documentation from client's partners and institutions - received invoices, interest calculation, statements from business banks, and similar. Then, there is also documentation created by the client - issued invoices, payment orders, specifications, sometimes accompanying documentation.
