Bookkeeping & ATO Compliance | Shoalhaven & Illawarra

Bookkeeping done properly, every month.

Keep your records accurate, compliant, and up to date, without doing it yourself. Our certified bookkeepers and registered BAS agents look after your bookkeeping, BAS, GST, and reporting every month. You get clear reports and fewer surprises at tax time. We work with businesses in the Shoalhaven, Illawarra, Southern Highlands, and beyond.

Bookkeeping that keeps you compliant and shows you where your business stands.

Running a business is demanding enough without worrying about keeping your books under control. East Coast Bookkeeping & Business Solutions takes bookkeeping off your plate, so you can focus on your customers and your business.

Our bookkeepers are certified through the Tax Practitioners Board and registered BAS agents (26044669). We keep your records accurate, up to date, and in line with ATO requirements.

Bookkeeping services for small business

We provide end-to-end bookkeeping support for businesses across a wide range of industries, including construction, healthcare, childcare, retail, hospitality and professional services.

Whether you are a sole trader, a growing small business or an established company with a larger team, our bookkeeping services are tailored to the way your business operates.

Bank reconciliation

Bank reconciliation is where good bookkeeping starts. We match your transactions to your bank statements, check that your records are right, and catch errors before they grow.

With your accounts reconciled, your reports are based on clean, current data.

BAS lodgement and ATO compliance

As registered BAS agents, we prepare and lodge your Business Activity Statements accurately and on time. We also keep across ATO changes, so you don’t have to track every update yourself.

Lodging through a registered BAS agent usually gives eligible businesses about four extra weeks to lodge and pay quarterly BAS. That extra time can ease cash flow pressure.

GST, PAYGW and reporting support

We make sure GST is calculated correctly on your transactions and reconciled each period. We also handle ongoing PAYG withholding and other reporting. If you need to register for GST or PAYG withholding, see our one-off services and training.

If you have staff, our bookkeeping team works with our payroll and HR team to keep employee records, super, and reporting aligned, including under the new Payday Super rules.

Financial reports you can actually use

Good bookkeeping should do more than keep the ATO happy. It should give you a useful picture of your business.

We prepare clear reports that show how your business is performing, where your money is going, and what needs attention. You can share them with your accountant, bank, lender, or investors when needed. For deeper analysis and regular reviews, see our business advisory, analysis and reporting services.

Accounts payable and receivable

Cash flow depends on more than sales. We can manage supplier invoices and debtor follow-up, so money keeps moving through the business.

That reduces admin, gives you a clearer view of your cash, and helps you avoid being busy but short of money. For forecasting and budgeting, see our cash flow forecasts and budgeting services.

Who this service is for

Our bookkeeping and ATO compliance services suit owners who want their books done properly, without the stress. We also help businesses moving from DIY bookkeeping, businesses that have fallen behind, and growing teams that need better systems.

Switching bookkeepers? We bring across your records and get you set up, even if it’s partway through the financial year.

We support business owners in Berry, Kiama, Nowra, Shellharbour, Ulladulla, Wollongong, the Southern Highlands, and Australia-wide from our office in South Nowra.
