## Service Description

Proper accounting is the backbone of any successful business in Malta. Our team manages and analyses your financial data comprehensively—from day-to-day bookkeeping and VAT compliance to preparing your annual financial statements. With digital workflows, automated deadline reminders, and direct liaison with your auditor, we ensure every obligation is met on time.

Our integrated document platform allows for the quick and secure exchange of receipts. You get a clear view of your financial position at any time—without getting bogged down in spreadsheets. This lets you focus on your core business while we keep a firm grip on your accounting and tax obligations.

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How often should accounting be done?**

We recommend monthly accounting so you always have transparency over your figures. If you are VAT registered, quarterly processing is the minimum legal requirement.

**What documents do I need to provide?**

Typically: incoming invoices, outgoing invoices, bank statements, credit card receipts, contracts, and other relevant documents. You upload everything digitally via our platform—simple and secure.

**Who handles communication with auditors and authorities?**

DW&P handles all communication—from the annual audit to VAT-related queries from Maltese authorities.

**What happens if documents are missing?**

Our system automatically reminds you of missing documents. Timely, transparent, and digital—ensuring your accounting never stalls.

**Can I take accounting in-house later?**

Yes. Many clients start with DW&P and later switch to their own accountants. We support the transition and ensure a clean handover.

**How do foreign VAT refunds work?**

We submit applications digitally via the Maltese VAT portal on your behalf. You don't need to worry about a thing.
