A chartered accountant replies with our fee for your transaction volume and your software.

Thank you. A chartered accountant will contact you shortly.

Our accounting and bookkeeping keep a company's books accurate, compliant and audit-ready every month, for SMEs, startups, foreign subsidiaries and NGOs without in-house finance. As an accounting services company and bookkeeping company in one, Business Registration Nepal offers chartered accountant services that feed straight into your statutory audit and annual compliance, from your company registration onward.

What Our Accounting & Bookkeeping Service Includes

Our accounting bookkeeping service covers 7 tasks each month, and each account and bookkeeping step builds on the last:

  • Recording transactions with double-entry bookkeeping
  • Bank reconciliation
  • Ledger accounts and trial balance
  • Payroll and SSF
  • VAT and tax records
  • Monthly financial statements
  • Year-end, audit-ready records

Our account and bookkeeping services categorize income, expenses, assets and liabilities, post vendor and customer invoices as entries, and compile monthly summaries, keeping debtors and creditors and the fixed-asset register in order.

Our Accounting & Bookkeeping Services

Our accounting and bookkeeping services in Nepal split by the job the books must do: record, report, pay staff, meet tax rules or guide decisions. Each service runs on the same ledger, so your records stay consistent from the daily entry to the year-end statement.

Bookkeeping

Our bookkeeping services record your daily transactions, keep ledger accounts and complete bank reconciliation using double-entry, for businesses that need accurate, up-to-date books. As a bookkeeper in Nepal, our accountant bookkeeping service makes your records audit-ready from day one, and the bookkeeping guide explains bookkeeping itself; our bookkeeper accounting service then hands clean books to the accounting team.

Financial Statement Preparation

We prepare your monthly and year-end profit and loss statement, balance sheet and cash flow statement to the Nepal Financial Reporting Standards. Companies use them for audit, tax, loans and investors, and because chartered accountants prepare them, they go into your statutory audit ready to review.

Payroll Management

Our payroll management processes salaries, deducts TDS and records Social Security Fund (SSF) contributions for every employee. It suits companies with staff, and it keeps payroll tax and SSF deposits compliant with the statutory deadlines each month.

Tax Accounting & Filing Support

Our tax and accounting services cover VAT returns, TDS and income-tax record-keeping and filing support for VAT-registered and growing businesses. Acting as your tax accountant, we keep the books tax-ready year round, linked to your VAT registration and tax clearance certificate.

Management Reporting / Virtual CFO

Our management reporting (MIS) service strengthens internal controls and produces monthly and quarterly reports, budgets and financial analysis, and our virtual CFO services fill the gap for companies without a finance head. Mid-size companies and FDI subsidiaries use it for decision-grade reporting, backed by our business and tax consulting.

Outsourced & Cloud Accounting

Our outsourced accounting runs your full back office remotely on Tally, QuickBooks or Xero, and it suits startups and overseas-owned companies. Outsourced bookkeeping and online accounting services remove the in-house payroll overhead, and cloud accounting gives you live access to your books.

Who Needs Accounting & Bookkeeping Support

A business in Nepal needs accounting and bookkeeping support when one of these 6 triggers applies:

  • No in-house finance team
  • Books behind on VAT or tax filings
  • Preparing for a statutory audit
  • Applying for a loan or investment
  • A foreign subsidiary needing a back office
  • An NGO needing donor-ready accounts

Small business accounting services cover most of these triggers, and our bookkeeping and accounting services for small businesses scale with transaction volume.

Bookkeeping vs Accounting

Bookkeeping vs accounting comes down to 4 differences, while the similarities between bookkeeping and accounting lie in the shared ledger and the same financial data:

Bookkeeping

Records and organizes daily transactions
Who performs it
A bookkeeper
Output
Ledgers, reconciliations and a trial balance
Purpose
Accurate, complete records

Accounting

What it does
Analyzes the records and prepares statements
Who performs it
An accountant or chartered accountant
Output
Financial statements, tax filings and reports
Purpose
Compliance, analysis and advice

The bookkeeping and accounting difference is covered in depth in our bookkeeping vs accounting guide.

How Our Bookkeeping Process Works

Our bookkeeping process for a business in Nepal runs in 6 steps:

  1. Onboard and collect source documents
  2. Record transactions with double-entry
  3. Reconcile bank and cash accounts
  4. Prepare monthly financial statements and reports
  5. File VAT/TDS and keep tax-ready records
  6. Deliver year-end, audit-ready accounts

Software We Work With

We work with Tally / QuickBooks / Xero and other systems your business prefers: Tally with its local VAT modules, and QuickBooks and Xero as cloud-based options. Xero bookkeeping and other bookkeeping software run remotely, and we pick the bookkeeper accounting software that fits your transaction volume.

Accounting & Bookkeeping Pricing

Accounting and bookkeeping pricing in Nepal depends on 3 factors: transaction volume, complexity and service depth. Business Registration Nepal quotes a monthly or hourly fee for each client after a free consultation, once we know your volume and the reports you need. Talk to a consultant about your fee.

How Often & How Long

We reconcile your books weekly or bi-weekly for high transaction volume, and monthly for smaller firms, after a short onboarding period. Your books of accounts (Income Tax Act) must be kept for about 7 years, so we maintain periodic backups of every record.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between bookkeeping and accounting?

The difference between bookkeeping and accounting is that bookkeeping records daily transactions, while accounting analyzes them, prepares statements and advises. Our bookkeeping vs accounting guide covers the full comparison.

What is bookkeeping?

The bookkeeping meaning is simple: the systematic recording and organizing of a business's financial transactions, which is the bookkeeping definition in accounting. Its five objectives of bookkeeping are to keep a complete record, find profit or loss, show the financial position, track debtors and creditors, and supply data for tax and decisions, as our bookkeeping guide explains.

What is double-entry bookkeeping?

Double-entry bookkeeping is a method where every transaction is recorded as a debit and a credit, so the books always balance. The double entry system of bookkeeping, sometimes searched as double bookkeeping, is the method we use for every client; see our bookkeeping guide.

Which accounting software do you use?

We use Tally for its local VAT modules, QuickBooks and Xero for cloud accounting, or the system you already prefer. The software never changes the double-entry method underneath.

Should I outsource bookkeeping or keep it in-house?

Outsourcing bookkeeping gives you professional expertise and compliance without permanent payroll overhead, which suits SMEs and startups. An in-house team suits businesses with enough volume to keep a bookkeeper busy full time.

How much do accounting and bookkeeping services cost in Nepal?

Accounting and bookkeeping costs in Nepal depend on transaction volume, complexity and scope, so no single price fits every business. Business Registration Nepal quotes your fee after a free consultation.

Do small businesses need bookkeeping?

Yes, every registered business in Nepal, small or large, must keep proper books of accounts under the Income Tax Act. Small business bookkeeping keeps those books compliant without a full-time hire.

How often should the books be updated?

Books should be updated weekly or bi-weekly for high transaction volume, and reconciled monthly for smaller firms. Regular updates keep your VAT returns and financial statements accurate.

Are the financial statements audit-ready?

Yes, we prepare financial statements to the Nepal Financial Reporting Standards, so they are audit-ready and become your audited financial statements after the statutory audit. Clean documentation keeps the audit short.

Is payroll included?

Yes, payroll, TDS and SSF records are part of the service when you need them. In Nepal, payroll tax means the tax deducted at source from salaries plus Social Security Fund contributions, which we calculate and file each month.

How long must I keep financial records in Nepal?

You must keep financial records for about seven years under the Income Tax Act. We store your books and supporting documents for that full period.

Do I still need bookkeeping if I have an accountant?

Yes, you still need bookkeeping if you have an accountant, because accountants rely on well-maintained books for accurate reporting. Good financial record-keeping, or book-keeping, is the base of every statement, which is why accounts and bookkeeping belong together.
