Accurit Accountancy

Accurit Accountancy is a Sliema practice that handles the paperwork a Maltese business cannot ignore: monthly bookkeeping, payroll, VAT, tax returns and year-end accounts. Its pitch to clients is simple. You get one accountant who knows your company, a price fixed in advance, and a calendar of filing dates that someone else is watching.

That suits owner-managers who would rather run their business than chase the tax authorities, and it suits UK readers setting up in Malta for the first time. The firm sits among the accountants in Malta listed on VisitMalta.co.uk, and its office is a short walk from the Sliema seafront.

How Accurit works with clients

The first conversation is free and carries no obligation. The accountant asks what the business does, where it operates and what is currently causing trouble. A firm quote follows before any work begins, and that figure does not rise with the hours spent. There is no hourly billing and no surprise invoice at year end.

Once you are on board, the practice organises your books and compliance, takes over from your previous accountant if you have one, and tells you exactly which documents it needs from you. After that the same person handles your books, payroll and filings every month and answers your messages directly, rather than passing you around a call centre or a rotating team.

If you are weighing up where to base a company, our guide to Malta's corporate tax structure explains the framework an accountant will be working within.

Accounting, tax, payroll and VAT

Bookkeeping is kept current month by month and reconciled against the bank, so the figures you rely on describe last week rather than last year. Tax work covers corporate and personal returns filed with the Maltese tax authority, with any refund claim worked out at the same time as the return.

Payroll is run end to end: payslips, the employer return known as the FS5, and the social security and tax calculations behind them. You send the monthly changes, such as starters, leavers, hours and bonuses, and the firm deals with the filings.

On VAT, Accurit handles classification and registration through the MTCA online portal, then files returns quarterly. Registration is mandatory once annual turnover passes the €35,000 small-undertaking threshold, and that voluntary registration below that level lets you charge VAT and reclaim it on qualifying costs. Advisory and financial reporting services sit alongside these. UK nationals comparing their own position can read our Malta tax guide for UK nationals, and our overview of financial services in Malta shows where this work fits in the wider economy.

Sectors the firm covers

Accurit works across eight sectors because each carries its own obligations. For gaming operators that means player-funds segregation, gaming tax and the reporting a Malta Gaming Authority licence expects; our iGaming in Malta guide gives the background. Financial services clients get fund and investment-firm reporting prepared in the format both regulator and auditor expect.

Real estate clients have rental income, property VAT and development costs tracked per unit, so each project stands on its own numbers. Retail and e-commerce businesses get stock, margins and multi-channel takings reconciled, with VAT applied across the different rates that product lines attract. Manufacturing, technology, professional services and start-ups and SMEs are covered too.

Anyone arriving to work remotely or relocate with a company can pair this with our relocation guide for UK movers and our digital nomad guide to Malta.

Finding the office and getting started

The office is at 11 Blanche Huber Street in Sliema and opens Monday to Friday from 09:00 to 17:00. If you are flying in for a meeting, the hotels in Sliema are within walking distance, and a free afternoon can take you to the capital using our Valletta guide.
