Accountant’s Verification Letter Services

Professional | Compliant | Accepted by Banks & Authorities

An Accountant’s Verification Letter is often required by banks, lenders, regulators, landlords, and licensing authorities to confirm a client’s financial or business position. These letters must be accurately worded, ethically compliant, and purpose-specific to be accepted.

At DIA Taxation, we provide professionally prepared Accountant’s Verification Letters that meet Australian professional standards, while clearly defining scope, limitations, and responsibility.

  • General financial position

  • Historical income (where appropriate)

  • Tax lodgement and compliance status

  • Ability to meet commitments as they fall due

📌 This letter is not an audit, review, or guarantee, and is always issued with appropriate professional disclaimers.
