Tax & Accounting for Havant Businesses

Havant has one of east Hampshire's most settled business communities. PO9 covers Havant itself plus Bedhampton, Leigh Park and parts of Emsworth, anchored by the substantial Solent Retail Park and Meridian Shopping Centre, the long-running Havant Cricketers Industrial Estate supporting light manufacturing and trades, the busy A27 corridor making Havant a commuter location for Portsmouth, the proximity to Hayling Island supporting some seaside tourism, the established residential community using the rail services into Portsmouth and onward to London, and a wider PO9 community providing CIS subcontractors and trades businesses serving construction across east Hampshire and into West Sussex.

That mix creates a particular accounting profile. Light manufacturing on the local industrial estates needs proper VAT treatment plus capital allowances on equipment. Solent Retail Park concession holders need specific landlord turnover reporting. CIS subcontractors working across east Hampshire need clean monthly returns and same-day refund processing. Portsmouth commuter professionals working through Limited Companies need IR35-aware structures. Your Tax Help Accountants, HMRC-registered, serves Havant clients online with fixed monthly fees.

💡 As an HMRC-registered agent we deal directly with HMRC on your behalf, so you never have to spend hours on hold or navigate their website yourself.

Client Story

How we got a Havant CIS subcontractor £5,500 back

Client D is a self-employed bricklayer based in Havant, working through CIS for several main contractors on residential and commercial developments across east Hampshire and into West Sussex. When he came to us his expense records were essentially a folder of receipts in his van and a memory of which jobs he had done, his previous accountant had been filing a basic Self-Assessment without actively reviewing his position.

We rebuilt his records for the year, captured legitimate van and fuel expenses, tools and equipment, PPE and CSCS card renewal, training certifications, mobile and admin costs, work clothing, and a reasonable home-office proportion. We also moved him onto a simple receipt-capture app.

Year one outcome: CIS refund of £5,500, filed within 9 days of tax year end, and Client D now has a system that handles receipts as they happen.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

I'm a Havant CIS subcontractor. How quickly can you get my refund?
We typically file CIS refund claims within 7-10 days of the 6 April tax year end, with HMRC usually processing payment within 2-4 weeks after that. We provide a receipt-capture app.
I work projects across east Hampshire and into West Sussex. How do I handle mileage?
All genuine business mileage between projects is deductible. The HMRC simplified rate is 45p (55p for 2026/27) per mile for the first 10,000 business miles each year and 25p thereafter. Travel from home to a regular workplace is generally not deductible, but travel between sites and to temporary workplaces is.
My Havant light manufacturing business has bought new equipment. What capital allowances?
The Annual Investment Allowance gives 100 per cent relief on the first £1 million of plant and machinery per year. Full Expensing (permanent from 2024) gives 100 per cent on new plant with no AIA limit. We audit your last three years of capital spend.
My Solent Retail Park concession requires monthly turnover reporting. How do you handle it?
Cleanly. We set up your bookkeeping with the landlord's required categorisation so the monthly report falls out of your accounting software, and we make sure it ties back to your VAT return and year-end accounts.
Can you help me move from sole trader to Limited Company in Havant?
Yes. For most consistent £40k-plus profit trades and contracting businesses, incorporating saves meaningful tax through the salary/dividend split. We handle company formation, asset transfers, new HMRC registrations and the first year's books.
I'm a Havant-based contractor commuting to Portsmouth. Should I review my IR35?
Yes, especially if you haven't reviewed since the off-payroll rules changed in 2021. For medium and large clients, the client makes the determination. We review the SDS and your working arrangements.
My PO9 takeaway has cash takings. What records do I need?
Daily Z-reads from the till, every supplier invoice digitised, separate business banking, proper monthly reconciliation. Cash-heavy businesses get more HMRC attention but rigorous record-keeping makes that uneventful.
