Coveney Nicholls has been a Xero Gold Champion partner since 2016. We combine big firm experience with small firm values, focusing on loyalty and modern methods to serve individuals, businesses, medical professionals, and non-UK residents. Our recent transition into an international organisation has broadened our reach across Europe, yet our personalised touch remains central. Here, we discuss what Xero Gold Champion status means for you and how we can help you handle UK tax regulations.

What Xero Gold Champion status means

We hold Xero Gold Champion status because we have consistently demonstrated a high level of expertise and client satisfaction. This is more than a badge. It indicates our in-depth knowledge of Xero’s features and our ability to tailor them to your individual or business needs. By choosing a Xero Gold Champion partner, you can expect:

  • Focused support: We understand the platform inside and out, so we can advise you on best practices and time-saving add-ons.
  • Early access to updates: Xero often releases new features. We evaluate these tools to ensure you get the benefit as soon as they become available.
  • Personalised training: We offer training sessions to help you use Xero effectively, whether you want to understand daily bookkeeping or more advanced reports.

Our practice is driven by long-term relationships. We share global insights while maintaining a local approach to client service. This combination helps you manage not only the 2025/26 UK tax requirements but also cross-border regulations if you operate internationally.

Working internationally with Xero

Our membership in an international organisation and focus on modern technology positions us to handle multi-currency transactions effectively. Xero’s real-time currency conversion and seamless bank integrations simplify record-keeping for businesses with overseas customers or suppliers. Non-UK residents can also manage their UK-based income without dealing with spreadsheets or outdated software.

Automation reduces data entry, while features like invoice tracking and expense categorisation make for a clear view of your cashflow. This transparency is crucial if you are planning expansions, balancing different revenue streams or monitoring exchange rates.

Practical steps for a smoother 2025/26

  1. Set up Xero for success
    Begin your 2025/26 tax year by connecting your bank feeds and syncing any payment platforms. This ensures each transaction is accurately recorded.
  2. Automate reminders
    Set quarterly or monthly notifications to review your finances in Xero. Quick checks prevent small errors from growing into bigger problems.
  3. Monitor MTD changes
    Keep track of new MTD requirements. We can advise you when new rules might apply and how to align your digital records with them.
  4. Use real-time data
    Xero’s dashboards provide immediate insights. If you see unusual spending or a delayed invoice, you can act straight away. This also helps with accurate forecasting.
  5. Talk to the professionals
    Our team handles everything from international tax queries to personal relief strategies. We can review your positions before major deadlines, giving you time to make adjustments.
