Frequently asked questions

Do I need an accountant if I use Ledgerly Pro?

Most sole traders don't. Ledgerly Pro prepares your books and tax summary — you submit your Self-Assessment via HMRC's website. If you'd prefer an accountant, we make it easy to give them read-only access.

Does it work for the 2026/27 tax year?

Yes. Ledgerly Pro tracks each UK tax year separately and the tax estimator uses current HMRC bands and allowances.

Can I claim business mileage?

Yes — there's a built-in mileage tracker that applies current HMRC mileage rates: 45p/mile for the first 10,000 miles, then 25p thereafter.
