Every Month You Receive

  • A profit and loss statement and a balance sheet, on an agreed date
  • A reconciliation report for every bank, card and wallet account
  • Review notes from a second person, not the one who posted
  • A list of missing documents and open questions
  • An audit trail: every figure opens the document behind it

Scope

What Do EICRA’s Bookkeeping Services Cover?

Six deliverables, from the daily entries to the year-end pack. Take all six as one monthly service, or any one of them on its own.

01

Balanced Books

Every transaction recorded and categorised against your chart of accounts, with bank, card and wallet accounts reconciled before the month closes.

02

Income Statement

A monthly profit and loss statement showing revenue, cost of sales and expenses by category, compared against the previous period.

03

Balance Sheet

Assets, liabilities and equity at the close of each period, built from reconciled ledgers rather than from an estimate.

04

Year-End Financial Statements

The full pack an auditor or lender asks for: profit and loss, balance sheet, cash flow and the supporting schedules behind them.

05

Tax Preparation Support

Books closed, classified and backed by documents so your tax consultant can file without rebuilding the year from receipts, whether that is a home-country return or a Bangladesh filing through the National Board of Revenue.

06

Virtual Bookkeeping

A remote back office: setup, document collection, ongoing entries and a named contact, with no desk or hire on your side.

Who it is for

Who Is This Bookkeeping Service Built For?

Four kinds of buyer come to this page with four different problems. Each block names what that buyer receives, so you can check the fit before a call.

Small and Mid-Sized Companies Abroad

Your QuickBooks Online, Xero or Zoho Books file reconciled every month by a named team, without a hire on your side.

  • Monthly close on an agreed date, scheduled around your working week
  • Multi-currency ledgers and bank feeds kept matched
  • Statements in the format your accountant and your bank ask for

Founders With a Bookkeeping Backlog

Months of unposted transactions brought current before the regular monthly cycle begins.

  • Reconciliation worked backwards one period at a time
  • A written list of entries that cannot be substantiated, instead of guesses
  • Opening balances agreed with you before the monthly service starts

Accounting and CPA Firms

Back-office bookkeeping capacity for your client files, delivered under your firm’s name and review cycle.

  • Work prepared in your templates and handed to your reviewer, not the client
  • Named staff assigned per client file for continuity
  • NDA covering your client relationships before any file is shared

Companies Registered in Bangladesh

Books kept in the form your local auditor and tax agent will ask for, including foreign subsidiaries and branch offices.

  • Records maintained to the Companies Act 1994 requirement for books of account
  • VAT and withholding schedules prepared for your tax agent to file
  • Runs alongside our employer-of-record and payroll services for the same entity

Process

How Does the Monthly Bookkeeping Cycle Run?

One fixed cycle every month, agreed at onboarding. Documents are collected, transactions posted and reconciled, a second person reviews the file, and you receive the same statements on the same date each month rather than whenever someone asks.

Collect

Bank feeds, invoices, bills and receipts gathered from your own systems, and anything missing is chased before posting starts.

You receive: missing-item list

Post

Transactions entered and categorised against your chart of accounts, using the same rules every month so the comparatives stay honest.

You receive: posted ledger

Reconcile

Bank, card, loan and wallet balances matched line by line against the ledger, following the same bank reconciliation steps your software vendor documents, and any difference is explained rather than forced.

You receive: reconciliation report

Review

A second person checks classifications and flags unusual entries. The reviewer is never the person who posted the month.

You receive: review notes

Report

Statements prepared and any open questions listed for you, so the month closes with decisions rather than with a backlog.

You receive: monthly statements

File

Source documents and schedules archived against each entry, in your own storage, ready for an auditor who asks twelve months later. For a Bangladesh-registered company this is the record the Companies Act 1994 requires it to keep.

You receive: audit trail

Software

Which Accounting Software Do You Work In?

Yours. We work inside the software you already pay for and your team already knows, rather than migrating you to a tool that suits us. If you have no system yet, we open one in your own name and hand over the login.

QuickBooks Online Full cycle: entries, reconciliation, monthly and year-end reporting.
Xero Full cycle, bank feeds and multi-currency ledgers.
Zoho Books Full cycle, inside the Zoho suite you already use.
Sage 50 and Business Cloud Entries, reconciliation and statutory-format statements.
Legacy desktop systems Peachtree, Simply Accounting and Business Vision files kept current.
No system yet Setup, chart of accounts and opening balances, in your own account.

Scope boundary

How Is Bookkeeping Different From Accounting?

Three different jobs, often sold as one. Knowing which you are buying is the difference between a clean year end and a surprise.

Job What it does Who does it here
Bookkeeping Records what happened: every sale, bill, payment and transfer entered against the right account, and every bank balance matched to the ledger. A discipline of completeness, not of judgement. EICRA
Accounting Explains what it means: accruals, depreciation, provisions, margin analysis and the decisions a management report supports. It reads the record that bookkeeping produced. EICRA, or your own accountant
Audit and tax filing A regulated step. Returns are prepared and filed, and statutory accounts signed, under a licensed registration and that firm’s own liability. Your licensed auditor or tax agent
What we do not do. We are not a licensed public accounting firm. We do not audit our own work, issue an audit opinion, or sign off statutory accounts, and we do not file tax returns. We prepare and reconcile the books and the schedules behind them; your auditor or tax agent takes it from there, in whatever format they ask for.

Why EICRA

Why Outsource Bookkeeping to EICRA?

The expensive part of bookkeeping is never the data entry. It is the month nobody reconciled, the invoice nobody matched, and the year-end scramble to rebuild twelve months from a folder of receipts. Four commitments remove all three.

The Same Two People Every Month

A named bookkeeper posts and a named reviewer checks. Not a shared queue, not whoever is free that week, and never the same person doing both jobs.

Reconciled Before the Month Closes

Every bank, card, loan and wallet account matched line by line. Differences are explained in writing rather than forced into a suspense account and forgotten.

Your Software, Your Login, Your Data

We work inside your own subscription. Our access is named and least-privilege, it is removed when the engagement ends, and nothing is held hostage at handover.

A Company Contract, Not an Invoice

NDA and DPA signed before any record moves, month-to-month terms, and a written scope naming the accounts, the reports and the delivery date.

FAQs

Questions Buyers Ask Before Outsourcing Bookkeeping

Cost is at the top, because that is the question everyone opens with.

How much do bookkeeping services cost?

Bookkeeping is a fixed monthly fee by volume: $99 for up to 100 transactions, $199 for up to 300 and $399 for up to 750. A full-time dedicated bookkeeper is $1,950 a month. Software subscriptions are paid by you, directly to the provider, and the plan structure is set out on our plans page.

Do you provide full-service accounting and bookkeeping?

We handle the full bookkeeping cycle, from collecting documents to preparing financial statements. We are not a licensed public accounting firm and we do not file tax returns; your own licensed tax agent or auditor files from the closed books we hand over. Management accounting on top of the books is covered under our accounting services.

Is there a contract, and can we stop?

The service runs month to month. Give one month’s notice and we hand over a clean, reconciled set of books in your own software. Once a service month has started it is not refunded, because the work for that month is already scheduled and staffed.

Can we keep the books ourselves and have you check them?

Yes. We set up the chart of accounts, train your team in your own software, and then check the file on an agreed cycle, monthly or quarterly, so errors are found during the year instead of at year end.

Can you handle payroll as well?

We can set up cloud payroll that connects to your accounting software, and after each pay run we reconcile the bank statement against the ledger. Full payroll processing, payroll and HR compliance and employer-of-record work are separate services under the EOR menu.

Do you work in our accounting software or yours?

Yours. You keep the subscription, the login and the data, and our access is named and least-privilege. If you have no system yet, we open one in your name and hand over the credentials at the end of setup.

Who can see our financial data?

Only the named bookkeeper and reviewer assigned to your account. Access is least-privilege and removed when the engagement ends, an NDA and a DPA are signed before any record moves, and we do not export your ledger outside your own systems.

What if we have months of unreconciled books?

Catch-up is $79 per backlog month, confirmed once we have seen the file. We reconcile backwards one period at a time, list what cannot be substantiated instead of guessing, and start the monthly cycle only once the opening balances are agreed.

How do we switch from our current bookkeeper without losing data?

Nothing is migrated, because the ledger already sits in your own software. The handover runs in this order:

  1. You grant our named staff access to the existing file.
  2. We review the last closed period and list the open items.
  3. You remove the previous bookkeeper’s access.
  4. The first monthly cycle starts from the agreed closing balances.
What happens after we enquire?

A scoping call first, then paperwork, then access. In order:

  1. You send last month’s bank statement and your chart of accounts.
  2. We hold a scoping call and send a written scope naming the accounts, reports and delivery date.
  3. NDA and DPA are signed, and you grant named, least-privilege access.
  4. The first monthly cycle runs to its scheduled close date.
What does the service not include?

We do not audit, issue opinions, sign statutory accounts or file tax returns, because those are licensed activities. We also do not provide real-time or same-day reporting: the service runs on a fixed monthly cycle, so a figure needed mid-month comes from the last reconciled close, not from a live dashboard.

How soon do the first statements arrive?

At the close date of the first full cycle after access is granted and the opening balances are agreed. If a backlog exists, the catch-up engagement finishes first, because statements built on unreconciled openings would have to be restated. We do not promise a fixed number of days; the scope letter states the agreed close date.

Where is our data held, and under which law is the contract?

Your data stays in your own accounting software and document storage; nothing is copied to servers in Bangladesh. Our staff access it remotely from Dhaka under the NDA and DPA signed before work starts. The governing law is agreed in the scope letter, and UK or EU clients can have the DPA carry the transfer terms their regulator expects.
