The Role Within Client Structures

Accounting and tax services are often treated as standalone requirements. In practice, they sit at the centre of how a structure is maintained and evidenced over time.

Financial reporting, tax filings and payroll records are not simply compliance outputs. They demonstrate how a company or structure operates in reality.

For advisers and clients, the key consideration is alignment. The structure, the activity and the reporting should all reflect the same position.

Acquarius works alongside directors, trustees and advisers to ensure that this alignment is maintained across the lifecycle of the structure.

Accounting and Financial Reporting

Accurate financial reporting underpins effective governance and decision-making.

Acquarius supports clients with:

  • Statutory financial statements
  • Management accounts prepared periodically
  • Bookkeeping and maintenance of accounting records
  • Coordination with auditors where required

Where structures involve multiple entities or jurisdictions, reporting is coordinated to ensure consistency across the wider arrangement.

Management reporting is tailored to the needs of the client or family office, providing clarity without unnecessary complexity.

Tax Compliance

Gibraltar operates a territorial system of taxation, with a standard corporate tax rate of 15% on income accruing in or derived from Gibraltar.

Acquarius supports clients with:

  • Preparation and submission of Gibraltar tax returns
  • Ongoing tax compliance and reporting
  • Coordination with external tax advisers in other jurisdictions

Tax compliance is approached as part of the wider structure. Filings are prepared to reflect how the entity is managed and operated in practice.

Where structures involve multiple jurisdictions, Acquarius works alongside external advisers to ensure that Gibraltar compliance aligns with the broader tax position.

Payroll and Employment Support

For corporate clients with employees in Gibraltar, payroll forms part of the operational and compliance framework.

Acquarius provides:

  • Employee onboarding and registration
  • Payroll processing and reporting
  • Compliance with local employment requirements

Payroll also plays a role in supporting substance where required, particularly for trading companies and structures with operational presence in Gibraltar.

Our Approach

Accounting, tax and payroll services are delivered as part of a coordinated framework rather than as isolated functions.

Who is it for?

Our accounting, tax and payroll services are typically used by:

  • Corporate clients operating in or through Gibraltar
  • Family office structures requiring consolidated reporting
  • Private clients with investment or holding structures
  • Advisers seeking a regulated Gibraltar provider for ongoing compliance
  • Businesses requiring outsourced accounting and payroll support

In each case, the objective is to provide reliable, well-managed support that allows clients and advisers to focus on higher-level decisions.
