Användningsfall för Accountancy i United Kingdom

Engagement letters and fees

Engagement letters and fee agreements are form-free and signed via a link in minutes. The advanced signature (AES) records the client, scope and time, avoiding later disputes.

HMRC authorisations (64-8)

Authorisations to act for clients before HMRC are signed digitally and sent in bulk. The audit trail evidences the authority; the signed PDF can be filed in the client record.

Approval of annual accounts

Annual accounts and approval minutes are signed off by the client with a defined order and a lock until fully signed — avoiding delays at filing and Companies House deadlines.

Rekommenderad nivå för sektorn

Kvalificerad (QES)

Den är den juridiska motsvarigheten till en handskriven signatur med certifikat.

Engagements are form-free — the advanced signature (AES) provides the necessary evidence. For records subject to retention, the QES offers the highest evidential weight.

Juridisk ram British

Form-free engagements and record retention

Engagement contracts are form-free and can be concluded electronically. Accounting and tax records are subject to retention periods (typically six years under the Companies Act 2006 and HMRC rules); Certyneo archives signed documents with integrity and a timestamp.

Evidential weight (UK eIDAS)

Electronic signatures are admissible as evidence; the qualified signature (QES) carries the highest assurance. The audit trail of Certyneo (timestamp, IP, OTP) strengthens evidential weight in a dispute.
