Cross-border trade with the Republic of Ireland and the Windsor Framework add a layer most UK businesses do not deal with, affecting how goods moving between Great Britain and Northern Ireland are documented and taxed. For the books, that means a Belfast manufacturer tracks VAT on cross-border goods movements alongside the same PAYE and Making Tax Digital obligations that apply across the rest of the UK. GMT/BST. Our second office covers UK business hours live, 8am to 6pm. ## Northern Ireland tax and compliance notes ### VAT registration threshold The UK VAT registration threshold is £90,000 of taxable turnover, applied the same way in Northern Ireland as the rest of the UK, with digital filing required under Making Tax Digital. ### Windsor Framework for goods Northern Ireland's goods trade operates under the Windsor Framework, which sets how businesses moving goods between Great Britain and Northern Ireland handle customs paperwork and VAT on those specific movements. ### PAYE, RTI and employer NI Employers report pay and deductions in real time under RTI and pay employer national insurance at 15% on earnings above the £5,000 secondary threshold, the same as the rest of the UK. General notes, not advice. Filing is done by you, your CPA, accountant or registered agent; we prepare the workings. ## Industries we serve in Northern Ireland - **[Manufacturing](https://ledgerbpo.com/industries/manufacturing/)** Aerospace and advanced engineering firms around Belfast need precise cost tracking across long production and supply cycles. - **[Construction](https://ledgerbpo.com/industries/construction/)** Housebuilding and infrastructure work in Northern Ireland runs under the Construction Industry Scheme, needing monthly CIS reconciliation. - **[Agencies](https://ledgerbpo.com/industries/agencies/)** A growing screen and creative industries cluster needs project-based invoicing and VAT tracked against UK clients and overseas productions. - **[Saas](https://ledgerbpo.com/industries/saas/)** Belfast's fintech and software scene needs recurring revenue reconciled against subscription billing and VAT on digital services. - **[Retail](https://ledgerbpo.com/industries/retail/)** Cross-border shopping and trade with the Republic of Ireland mean retailers need extra care reconciling VAT on goods movements. ## Software Northern Ireland businesses use - [Xero](https://ledgerbpo.com/software/xero/) - [QuickBooks Online](https://ledgerbpo.com/software/quickbooks-online/) - [Sage 50](https://ledgerbpo.com/software/sage-50/) - [FreeAgent](https://ledgerbpo.com/software/freeagent/) - [Dext](https://ledgerbpo.com/software/dext/) - [All 50 platforms](https://ledgerbpo.com/software/) ## Services for Northern Ireland businesses - [Bookkeeping](https://ledgerbpo.com/uk/services/bookkeeping/) - [Invoicing and billing](https://ledgerbpo.com/uk/services/invoicing-and-billing/) - [Accounts receivable](https://ledgerbpo.com/uk/services/accounts-receivable/) - [Accounts payable](https://ledgerbpo.com/uk/services/accounts-payable/) - [Bank reconciliation](https://ledgerbpo.com/uk/services/bank-reconciliation/) - [Month end close](https://ledgerbpo.com/uk/services/month-end-close/) - [All 84 services](https://ledgerbpo.com/services/) ## Frequently asked questions ### Do you have an office in Northern Ireland? No, we do not have a local office in Northern Ireland. LedgerBPO is the accounting and billing division of SS Support Network LLC, registered in Vancouver, Washington, with a second office in Pakistan that covers UK business hours live. Your dedicated accountant works remotely inside your own software, so there is no local premises to visit or maintain. ### How does the Windsor Framework affect our bookkeeping? If your business moves goods between Great Britain and Northern Ireland, the Windsor Framework changes how those movements are documented and VAT-treated. We record the transactions and VAT workings inside your software as your accountant instructs; questions about how the Framework applies to a specific shipment sit with your accountant or customs adviser. ### Can you handle my VAT return if my business is based in Northern Ireland? We prepare VAT workings and draft returns inside your bookkeeping software, reconciled against your sales, purchases and bank feed for the quarter. You or your accountant reviews the draft and submits it to HMRC under Making Tax Digital. Any question about money laundering supervision for your specific return sits with your accountant, not with us. ## Nearby - [Scotland](https://ledgerbpo.com/uk/locations/scotland/) - [England](https://ledgerbpo.com/uk/locations/england/) - [Wales](https://ledgerbpo.com/uk/locations/wales/) - [All locations](https://ledgerbpo.com/locations/) Next step ## Books closed.
