The process

How we work: the process, remote working and the sectors we cover

Around 90% of the work is done online, through a shared folder where you place your documents and we collect them from there. Here is the full process — from the first meeting through to the monthly filing.

Yes — we also work with businesses outside Pejë

The first question businesses from Prishtina, Ferizaj or Gjilan ask us is always the same: how does this work in practice when you are there and we are here? The short answer is that it works exactly as it does with a client whose office is five minutes away from us. We already have clients outside Pejë, and as an online accountant for the whole of Kosovo we handle around 90% of the work without anyone having to travel.

There is no need to come to the office to hand over invoices, and no need to post them either. For every client we open a shared folder — a shared document repository — where you place invoices and documents whenever it suits you, and we collect them from there. Nothing gets lost, you do not have to remember what you have sent us and what you have not, and every document stays archived in a single place, accessible to both sides.

Meetings do not disappear because of this. We meet at least once a month; how much more often depends on the attention your business requires — a construction company with several sites open needs closer contact than a services office with few transactions. The meeting can take place at our office in Zahaq, at your premises, or online.

The process step by step

  1. The first meeting — we talk about your activity, the volume of paperwork, the number of employees, your VAT status and your current standing with TAK. If you are coming from another accountant, we also look at what has been left unfinished.
  2. Opening the shared folder — we create the shared repository and, inside it, the subfolders by month and by document type: sales, purchases, bank, payroll, contracts. Access is given to you and to whoever on your side is responsible for uploading the documents.
  3. Sending the documents — you upload invoices and documents during the month, as they come in. There is no need to collect them until the end; the more regularly they are placed there, the less pressure there is in the last days before the deadline.
  4. Accounting processing — we record the invoices, reconcile them with the bank statements, check fiscal numbers and deductible VAT, and only come back to you about documents that are unclear or missing.
  5. Monthly reporting — you receive a short overview of the month: sales, purchases, VAT payable or creditable, payroll cost and the result. No jargon and no tables nobody reads.
  6. Filings and deadlines — we prepare and submit the returns through TAK's EDI system, and we tell you the amounts due before the deadline expires.
  7. The periodic meeting — at least once a month we look together at where the business stands and what is coming next: investments, bank loans, new employees.

What you send us, and in what form

The list is the same for every client and we give it to you in writing from the outset, so there are no misunderstandings:

  • Sales invoices and fiscal receipts for the period
  • Purchase invoices from suppliers, including those for expenses
  • Customs declarations (SAD) for imports, if you import
  • Monthly bank statements for every account
  • New employment contracts, salary changes and terminations
  • Contracts with customers and suppliers that have a financial effect
  • Cash register documents, if a cash register is kept

The format is not complicated: a clear scan or a photo from your phone is enough, as long as the date, the fiscal number, the amount and the VAT can be read; PDFs from your invoicing system are better still. You keep the physical originals, because the law requires the documentation to be held by the entity itself — we ask for them only when there is a real need, during an inspection for example.

We keep track of the deadlines

The most frequent complaint we hear from businesses that come to us is always the same: the previous accountant never got in touch and the deadlines passed. With us the calendar is the firm's responsibility, not the client's. We notify you before the deadline, not after it has expired.

  • By the 15th — filing of payroll, wage tax and pension contributions (5% employee + 5% employer)
  • By the 20th — filing and payment of VAT for the previous month
  • 15 April, 15 July, 15 October, 15 January — quarterly corporate income tax instalments
  • By 31 March — the annual tax return and the financial statements

You will also find the full calendar on the tax deadlines page, and the details of the monthly service under accounting.

Sectors

The activities we have worked with.

We work with every kind of activity. These are a few where the accounting specifics come up most often.

Construction

Progress certificates and revenue recognition by stage of work, subcontractor accounts and cost split by project — not just one total at the end of the year. As an accountant for construction companies, we know the invoice and the money rarely arrive in the same month.

Trade and import-export

Customs declarations, import VAT and the right to deduct, calculating the landed cost of goods to the warehouse, and reconciliations with suppliers abroad.

NGOs and donor projects

Reporting split by project and by donor, eligible expenditure under the grant agreement, and preparing the documentation required for the project audit.

Services and HoReCa

Turnover made up of many small transactions, cash registers and fiscal receipts, seasonal staff and variable hours — where payroll errors surface more often than anywhere else.

Plant nurseries and fruit growing

The long production cycle, costs incurred in one year with the income arriving the next, subsidies, and the treatment of perennial crops as business assets.

Quarries and aggregates

Measuring stock and output, fuel consumption and depreciation of heavy machinery, together with the specific obligations towards institutions for mining activity.

If you are in Prishtina or anywhere else

Distance changes neither the quality of the work nor the price. If you are looking for an accountant for businesses in Prishtina or in any other city in Kosovo, the process is exactly the one described above. We start with a conversation in which you tell us how your work is organised today and what is not going well.

Do I have to come to the office every month to hand over the invoices?

No. You place the invoices and documents in the shared folder we open for your business and we collect them from there — around 90% of the work is done online. You come to the office only if you want to, or when something requires a signature.

How do I send the documents if I am in Prishtina?

Through the shared folder: you upload them as a scan or as a clear photo from your phone, into the subfolder for the relevant month. There is no need for post or for physical delivery. You keep the originals, as the law requires.

How often do we meet during the year?

At least once a month. The frequency increases according to the needs of the business — the larger the volume of work and the more complex the transactions, the more often we are in touch. Beyond the meetings, you are free to write or call us at any time during working hours.

Have you worked with construction companies?

Yes. We work with every kind of activity, construction included — with progress certificates, subcontractors and cost by project — as well as trade and import-export, NGOs and donor projects, services and HoReCa, plant nurseries and fruit growing, and quarries and aggregates.

Who keeps track of the filing deadlines — me or you?

We do. We prepare and submit the returns through TAK's EDI system within the statutory deadlines, and we notify you in advance of every amount that has to be paid. You do not need to remember the dates.

Let's start with a conversation.

Tell us where you are and how you work today — we will tell you concretely how we would organise the work with you.
