FAQ: Bookkeeping services
What are the costs of an accounting service in Montpellier?

Our services include accounting records management, drafting of year-end accounts, declaration of taxes, and advisory services to improve your accounting efficiency. For a custom estimate, we assess your needs and provide a custom solution.
What is the role of a chartered accountant in a business?
A professional accountant plays a crucial function in the financial oversight and sustainability of a business. Their role is more than simple accounting—they also advise company leaders in making strategic financial decisions.
We assist firms in handling their daily bookkeeping, optimize taxation, and meet legal obligations. We also provide support in performance analysis, treasury oversight, wage management, and drafting compulsory reports, such as balance sheets, income statements, and tax filings.
Our mission is to provide business owners with a transparent and strategic financial outlook, encouraging development and complete regulatory adherence.
Can I fully outsource my accounting?
Yes, it is entirely possible to fully outsource your accounting management. This lets you concentrate on business development while having peace of mind that your accounting is handled by experts.
We manage bookkeeping, tax and social declarations, strategic tax planning, and regulatory oversight. We provide personalized support suited to your company type and requirements, while ensuring full compliance with current regulations.
Outsourcing your accounting also minimizes mistakes, optimizes tax management, and improves financial visibility through professional support.
Life insurance is another valuable solution : after eight years, it enjoys a favorable tax rate, making it an smart choice for passing on assets and reducing tax liability.
Investing in SMEs or tax-advantaged funds (fonds d’investissement de proximité et fonds communs de placement dans l’innovation) can also allow for a tax reduction of up to 25% of the capital invested, under certain criteria.
These are just a few examples! Our specialists are here to help you identify the most effective fiscal strategies for optimal savings.
How to choose the right legal status for my business?
Choosing the right legal status is a crucial step when setting up a business, as it impacts your tax regime, your welfare rights, and the entrepreneur’s legal responsibility.
We evaluate your plans to help you determine the most suitable structure based on your situation and ambitions. For example, a sole proprietorship may be ideal for a minimal turnover business with low operating costs, while a simplified joint-stock company or SARL offers more adaptability and security for entrepreneurs planning to grow their company.
Our support includes a tailored review of your business profile, considering your business type, expected income level, and future strategy. We help you make an informed decision to optimize your taxation and set up sound financial foundations from the very beginning of your business.
