What changes when Amazon accounting finally matches
Know what each payout earned
See sales, fees, refunds and VAT separately before judging the margin.
Pay VAT on the right sales
Your return follows where stock moved and where the customer bought.
Catch margin changes before purchasing
Current stock costs support better pricing and supplier decisions.
Where Amazon sellers lose track before VAT is filed
Settlement reports can hide the problem until the return is already due.
- VAT
“My Amazon payout matched the bank, so I assumed the VAT was right.”
One deposit can contain sales, fees, refunds and adjustments. Matching the bank alone does not test their VAT treatment.
- Stock
“Amazon moved my FBA stock abroad, but nobody checked what changed for VAT.”
The return may miss import VAT or treat stock movements like ordinary sales.
- Returns
“Refunds went through Amazon, but they were never reversed in the VAT return.”
The company can pay VAT on sales it did not keep.
- Day 90
What changes once the advice is in the room
Each settlement is split into the parts that matter. VAT follows the sale, stock movement and refund. You can price and purchase from accounts that match Amazon.

What Amazon sellers usually ask before they switch
What does the monthly fee include for Amazon sellers?
Your fixed fee is agreed in writing after the set-up review. It can cover bookkeeping, VAT returns, year-end accounts, corporation tax, payroll and the director’s Self Assessment. Amazon work can include A2X mapping, settlement reconciliation, FBA stock and marketplace VAT. Work starts once you approve the scope.
Can accountants for Amazon sellers work alongside my current accountant?
Yes. The free review can check the VAT scheme, settlements and cross-border treatment before you decide whether to switch. We can explain any gaps and set out the scope in writing. If your current accountant can put them right, you may have no reason to move.
Do Amazon sellers have to move accounting software?
We support Xero, QuickBooks and A2X, alongside Hubdoc or Dext for documents. A move is suggested only when the current set-up cannot handle Amazon settlement data correctly. We map the chosen software and explain how your team should use it before regular filing begins.
What happens with our current accountant when we switch?
Once you accept the written scope, we contact your current accountant and request the records. We handle professional clearance and check upcoming filing dates during the handover. Your former accountant supplies the information already held, while you continue sending current Amazon reports and purchase documents.
What should accountants for Amazon sellers check on VAT?
Accountants for Amazon sellers should check how settlements, fees, refunds and returns enter the VAT return. They should also review FBA stock movements, import VAT, reverse charge and overseas sales. The right VAT scheme depends on how and where the company trades.
Can you handle Amazon sales outside the UK?
Yes. Fiscal Umbrella works remotely with Amazon seller limited companies across the UK, including businesses selling overseas. The review checks where stock moves, who imports it and how sales are treated for VAT. Overseas registrations or advice outside UK tax rules may require local support.
