Built for teams operating across borders
UK company with a German subsidiary
Consolidate UK PAYE and German payroll into one ledger. File MTD VAT in London and UStVA in Berlin from one login — your Steuerberater gets a clean DATEV export.
German Mittelstand entering the UK
MTD VAT is mandatory for UK-registered businesses from day one. Finovo handles the UK filing without your German team learning a new tool — ELSTER stays in the same platform.
French group with UK operations
Separate the French TVA returns from the UK VAT submissions, keep a unified chart of accounts, and give your expert-comptable and UK accountant shared visibility — no file exports between tools.
UK construction firm expanding into Europe
CIS is already handled. When your first EU project starts, French Chorus Pro invoicing or German ZUGFeRD e-invoicing is one toggle away — no new subscription.
One tool vs three siloed tools
Cross-border accounting — frequently asked questions
- Can one Finovo account cover UK, German and French entities?
- Yes. Finovo is designed for multi-market operations. You can run UK MTD VAT, German ELSTER and French Chorus Pro under a single subscription. Each entity's transactions, VAT rules and filing deadlines are kept separate within the same platform.
- Is Finovo recognised software for HMRC MTD?
- Finovo submits VAT returns directly to HMRC using the MTD API. It is compatible with the Making Tax Digital rules for VAT-registered businesses in the UK.
- Can my German Steuerberater access the DATEV export?
- Yes. Finovo produces a DATEV-compatible export that your Steuerberater can import directly into their DATEV system. You do not need a separate German accounting tool to share books with a German advisor.
- Does Finovo handle Chorus Pro for French public-sector invoicing?
- Yes. Chorus Pro is required for invoicing French public-sector bodies (Direction des finances publiques, hospitals, universities, local authorities). Finovo routes those invoices through Chorus Pro and stores the structured Factur-X data for your DGFiP records.
- What payroll support is included for cross-border teams?
- Payroll runs through BrightPay sync for UK PAYE and RTI. For German and French payroll the platform handles the accounting entries and payslip storage; dedicated payroll bureaus in each country remain best practice for compliance filings.
