How do you ensure data security and confidentiality?
We take data security seriously. We use secure, encrypted systems for data storage and follow strict confidentiality protocols to safeguard your financial information.
How do you ensure compliance with Australian Tax Regulations?
Our team is well-versed in Australian tax laws and stays updated with any changes. Your tax agent will meticulously maintain records using tax checklists and prepare reports to ensure compliance.
What services can a tax accountant provide?
A tax accountant, especially in Sydney’s dynamic market, offers a broad range of services. They specialise in preparing and filing tax returns, ensuring small business owners benefit from optimal taxation strategies.
Their role extends beyond mere cost calculations; they provide valuable advice on financial matters, helping clients save money. By keeping clients informed and offering support, having a dedicated tax accountant can be extremely helpful for a small business owner new to the world of tax as a business entity.
What is the difference between accounting and bookkeeping?
While often referred to interchangeably, each of these services perform unique functions in business finance. Bookkeeping focuses on accurately recording financial transactions, which is crucial for business owners and clients. It’s about maintaining accounts, preparing financial statements, and managing cash flow, essential for a professional tax accountant to use while optimising tax returns, helping you save money.
Accounting, handled by experienced, fully qualified tax accountants, interprets this data, offering innovative solutions and professional advice for financial year reporting, business activity statements, budgeting, and reducing costs. It’s more analytical, helping businesses find efficiencies and reach their financial potential.
Accountants often provide strategic planning and support, making them essential for many businesses seeking to reduce costs and maximise tax benefits.
What accounting software do you work with?
The Shoebox Books & Tax Team are trained in MYOB, Quickbooks Online and Xero. We can also offer bookkeeping software training for your business.
How do I find an accountant in my area?
Of course! We welcome in-person consultations with our Sydney-based team, and we also offer virtual meetings for your convenience. You can find a local office in your area as we are located all over the region to ensure we have a branch near you!
How can I get started?
Simply contact us through our website, email, or phone. We’ll set up a free consultation to discuss your specific needs, provide innovative solutions, and get you started on the path to financial success for your business.
Do you offer other financial services apart from bookkeeping?

Outside of providing bookkeeping services, our Sydney branches offer tax and accounting services such as tax returns, tax advice, business advisory services, tax strategies, business reviews and tailored accounting.
