Feedback from our happy clients.

Like lots of actors, I’ve struggled to make ends meet at times. Juggling jobs, expenses, temporary work and figuring out how best to manage my money and make sure I could pay taxes in all that. I know what I can legitimately claim, I know how to manage short-term income, and best of all, I know I’m being really efficient with my tax!

Your Questions, Answered

How is entertainment accounting different from regular accounting?

Entertainment accounting involves managing fluctuating income, international tax obligations, royalties, residuals, brand deals, and performance-related expenses. We specialize in ensuring that industry professionals remain tax-efficient, compliant, and financially secure, no matter how complex their earnings structure is.

Can you help with international tax if I work abroad?

Yes! Many of our clients work internationally, tour globally, or earn revenue from multiple countries. We provide expert guidance on double taxation treaties, VAT requirements, and foreign income reporting to keep you compliant while maximizing your earnings.

What expenses can entertainment professionals claim for tax deductions?

Common tax-deductible expenses include:
✔️ Travel and accommodation for work
✔️ Agent and management fees
✔️ Equipment and wardrobe (if industry-related)
✔️ Studio rental and production costs
✔️ Professional training and coaching
✔️ Marketing, websites, and self-promotion
We help identify all legitimate deductions to reduce your tax bill while ensuring full compliance.

Do I need to register for VAT as an entertainer?

VAT registration depends on your income level and type of work. If your turnover exceeds £90,000 (UK threshold), VAT registration may be required. However, we assess your situation to determine the best VAT scheme for your specific needs, including handling VAT on overseas income and digital earnings.

Can you help with royalty tracking and image rights management?

Absolutely! We assist musicians, actors, content creators, and other entertainment professionals in tracking royalties, negotiating contracts, and setting up image rights companies to protect and maximize earnings while remaining tax-efficient.
