Common questions
Can you help with Self Assessment and VAT?
Yes. We prepare the figures and workings from your bookkeeping records and have them ready for your review and approval, or for your accountant or tax professional, before anything is submitted.
How much does it cost?
There are no fixed public prices because the right fee depends on your transaction volume, number of accounts, software and how tidy your records are. We send a written quote after we've talked. Catch-up work is quoted separately after reviewing your file.
Will my books always reconcile perfectly?
We reconcile the accounts we agree on, but we can only work with the information available. Where transactions are unclear or documents are missing, we'll raise them with you rather than guess.
How do you access my accounting software?
Through user access you grant inside QuickBooks Online or Xero, wherever possible. You stay in control and can remove access at any time. We'll never ask for your passwords.
Where are you based?
We work remotely from Pakistan and support UK and US clients online. Calls can be arranged at times that suit both sides.

Who is responsible for your data
Afnan Offshore, operated from Pakistan by Muhammad Abubakar Afnan, is the controller of the personal information described here. To contact us about your data, use the contact form on the home page.
What we collect
- Enquiry form: your name, email address, company, country, the service you're interested in, and whatever you write in your message.
- Email or WhatsApp: if you contact us directly, we receive your contact details and the content of your message.
- Technical data: like most websites, our hosting provider may process your IP address and basic browser information in server logs for security and reliability.
Please don't send passwords, bank login details, card numbers or other sensitive information through the form or by email. If we later work together, access to your accounting software is arranged through its own user permissions.
Why we use it, and our legal basis
- To reply to your enquiry and prepare a quote. This is necessary to take steps at your request before entering into a contract.
- To keep a record of our conversations and run our business sensibly, including preventing spam and misuse of the form. This is our legitimate interest.
- To meet legal or regulatory obligations, where they apply.
We do not sell your information, and we do not use it for unrelated marketing or send marketing emails unless you have asked for them.
Who we share it with
We use trusted service providers to run the site and handle messages: our website host and form-handling provider (Netlify) and our email provider. They process your information only to provide those services. We may also disclose information where the law requires it. If you become a client, we will provide a separate agreement covering how we handle your business records.
International transfers
We are based in Pakistan, and our providers may store or process data in the UK, the US or elsewhere. Where information is transferred outside your own country, we rely on appropriate safeguards, such as the provider's standard contractual terms or data-transfer frameworks, where these are required.
How long we keep it
Enquiries that don't lead to work are kept for up to 12 months and then deleted. If we do work together, we keep information for as long as the engagement lasts and for any period required by law or needed to handle disputes, as set out in our client agreement.
Cookies and tracking
This website does not set advertising or analytics cookies and does not use tracking pixels. If that changes, we will update this notice and ask for consent where required.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access your personal information, correct it, ask us to delete it, restrict or object to our use of it, and request a portable copy. To use any of these rights, contact us using the details above and we'll respond within one month. UK visitors may also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ico.org.uk). If you live elsewhere, you can contact your local data protection authority.
Security
This site is served over HTTPS and we limit access to enquiry data to those who need it. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, which is why we ask you not to send sensitive details through the form.
