Offshore bookkeeping services for CPA firms that stay under your control

Outsourcing hands over a task and returns a finished result; the people doing it change without notice, which suits defined or one-time work but produces inconsistency on continuing core work. A dedicated resource is one named person working only on your firm’s files, briefed and supervised by you. For ongoing client bookkeeping the dedicated model is what keeps the work predictable.

Ours is $2,200 to $2,500 per dedicated senior accountant, per month, depending on client mix, software, and whether AP, AR or payroll are in scope. Published rates elsewhere in this market start lower, but the lowest tiers are junior data-entry work. Catch-up and cleanup are scoped and quoted separately.

Because we have no junior tier to price. Rates in this market run from around $8 an hour, and that end is data entry. Our team is four practitioners averaging six and a half years each, all certified, so there is no cheaper level for us to quote. A monthly figure per dedicated resource is also what your firm can actually plan against.

Yes. Part-time and shared arrangements are available, quoted on the call rather than published, because the cost depends on how the time is split and across how many clients.

Yes — 40 hours of real work on a real client file, with the accountant who would be assigned to you. No setup fee and no commitment. Every trial we’ve run has become a client.

Yes. You brief them, set priorities, set the close calendar and review the output. They ask you when something is unclear rather than routing it through an account manager.

08:00 to 19:00 India time, roughly 21:30 to 08:30 US Eastern. There is almost no overlap with a US nine-to-five. Work is done overnight from your point of view and ready when you open, queries are answered before your next business day begins, and calls are booked into a 07:30–08:30 ET window. We do not run a night shift.

We replace them within three to five business days. The replacement is a qualified accountant, so skills are not the variable — what takes time is learning your specific client, and you should expect reduced output for the first cycle. We maintain a written SOP per client so that ramp is as short as it can be. Any provider telling you there is no ramp is describing something that does not happen.

Nikita Makwana, our Reviewer and Senior Accountant, with 6+ years in practice and 12 certifications. Review runs against a fixed checklist — reconciliations tied to statements, coding consistent with prior periods, month-end journals posted and supported, ageing agreed to ledger — before anything goes to your firm for its own review.

No, and we will not imply otherwise. Formal certification is underway; we are not publishing a target date. What we can describe is practice — role-based least-privilege access, secure VPN, disk encryption, device restrictions on the work floor, NDA-bound staff, client-owned software with your firm as administrator, and audit trails that stay in the client’s own system. If an audited attestation is a hard requirement for your firm, that is a real difference and worth weighing.

Yes. The client owns the subscription and your firm stays administrator. We work under named user accounts with least-privilege permissions, every action is attributable in the audit trail, and you can revoke access at any time without involving us.

It applies to tax return information. Where that information is disclosed to anyone outside the United States, the taxpayer’s written consent is required before disclosure, and granting view access counts as disclosure. The duty to obtain consent is your firm’s, though an offshore provider performing auxiliary services is itself a tax return preparer under the regulation and carries the same penalty exposure. The detailed position is on our white label bookkeeping page. General information, not legal advice.
