Start dates
We onboard new clients in groups, so each one gets a proper start. The next start date is December 1, 2026. For monthly plans, a deposit of one month's fee holds your place, refunded in full if we cannot start on that date.
How we compare prices
On average, our listed prices are 32% below the published comparisons. The typical market price is the middle of the prices firms publish on their own pages for the same service, checked in October 2026, or a published fee survey where firms do not publish prices. We compared 47 services.

Questions
Which countries do you work in?
Tell us the countries involved and the work you need. We confirm whether we can take it on, including any local professional required, before you commit.
What does it cost?
Published prices apply to the services, limits and markets listed. Large multinational groups are quoted individually. Separately quoted work is marked in the price list; other unlisted accounting work uses our published hourly rate. Your written engagement records the services you select, the total fee and the accountant responsible. The introductory call is free; any other free introductory work is stated in the relevant offer.
Can I switch from my current accountant?
Yes. We handle the handover, including getting the records and filings history from your current accountant.
Who will do my work?
One of our accountants, named in your written engagement. Writing or checking a skill does not automatically assign that accountant to your enquiry.
Prefer to write?
Email info@openaccountants.com with the countries involved, the work you need and any deadline. No OA account needed.
Checking your sign-in…
A call or a request is an enquiry, not an engagement. Nothing starts until you have accepted the written engagement covering your selected services and total fee. See our terms.
