The price of accounting services for a limited liability company (sp. z o.o.) does not come from a “price list on a website” but from a few specific factors. We explain what you are really paying for and how to avoid overpaying.
A limited liability company (sp. z o.o.) always keeps full accounting books — regardless of whether it has a million zloty in revenue or just a few invoices a month. That is why accounting for a company costs more than the simplified revenue and expense ledger (KPiR) of a sole proprietorship (JDG). Exactly how much depends on a few things.
What affects the price
- Number of documents per month — sales and purchase invoices, bank statements, warehouse documents. This is the main measure of the accountant's workload.
- Employees — every person on an employment contract or a contract of mandate means a payroll, ZUS (Social Insurance Institution) contributions and a PIT-11 form.
- Form of taxation — Estonian CIT requires monitoring additional conditions, but it can be simpler for ongoing settlements.
- Foreign trade — intra-Community transactions, VAT OSS, foreign currencies.
- Industry specifics — construction, e-commerce and catering all have their own records and settlements.
What should be included in the price
Standard accounting services for a company should include: booking documents, VAT and JPK (Standard Audit File for Tax) settlements, CIT advance payments, the fixed asset register, handling invoices in KSeF (the National e-Invoicing System) and, at year end, the financial statements, CIT-8 and JPK_CIT. Ask about this before signing the contract, so that in March you don't discover that “the balance sheet is charged separately”.
How to avoid overpaying
The cheapest offer is rarely the cheapest in practice: a late return or an incorrectly settled cost means interest and stress during a tax inspection. Compare the scope, not just the price. At JUGOMA we prepare a quote within 24 hours of a short conversation, and the first month of cooperation costs PLN 1 — so you can test our service before you decide.
