Business Tax ReturnClaims of being a ‘Top 2% ranked Australian Accounting Firm‘ (and similar claims) are based on two separate assessments conducted by Munro’s on 9-10 August 2023 and 1 December 2023. The ranking is derived from a comparison of the total of each accounting firm’s overall star rating multiplied by each firm’s quantity of reviews as shown on Google Maps. A total of 4,235 Australian accounting firms listed on Google Maps were identified for the earlier assessment, and a total of 4,301 for the latter assessment, which may not represent a complete list of Australian accounting firms. Munro’s claims are based on Munro’s best estimation and represent a snapshot collected at the time of each assessment. If the assessment was to be conducted today, then it is likely that Munro’s ranking would have changed – Munro’s may or may not be in the Top 2% today. Also, the methodology does not account for other potentially relevant factors such as quality of service, expertise, or client satisfaction beyond Google Maps reviews.

In December 2023, we conducted a review of Australian accounting firms on Google Maps, based on star rating and quantity of reviews.
Out of the 4,301 Australian accounting firms we identified on Google, Munro’s ranked number 44, placing us in the Top 2% of Australian Accounting Firms. We’re thrilled to share this fact with you and share those reviews on our website. We’d also like to thank all our clients who left us those wonderful reviews.
Thank you.
Pleasure working with you guys and one of the best decisions to move forward in our family business with Munros. Utmost professionalism right from answering the phone to all of your advice and support.
We are 3rd generation clients.
Munros are more than accountants they have a general interest in the wellbeing of our business.
Munros are forward thinking business organisers and friends
We wish them well for the next 50 years
Fantastic work. Professional accountants with incredible response times and excellent advice.
Perfect service
Excellent advice with very skilled accountants. Not too expensive, for such a specialized and sophisticated service. Committed to the customer, always very professional and helpful. Highly recommended!
Friendly staff and excellent service. During the past five years, their team have provided very useful advice on tax savings. Their prompt response and well explanation to my questions are well worth Five Stars. Thanks Josephine, Christine and the team. Highly recommended without hesitation.
Great team and great service.
I can highly recommend Tony and Michael at Munros – they have done my family affairs for several years now and couldn’t be more happier with the service I receive. The quality and professionalism of the work is second to none.
Christine Prasetia is extremely efficient, always on hand with advice and is a pleasure to work with.
We have been with Munros for the life of our farming business. Munros staff are always so polite and helpful. Christine and her team are so professional, knowledgeable and have a thorough understanding of our business and what we wish to achieve going forward. We see them as a vital part of our business. We are very grateful for this relationship!
As soon as I saw that Munro’s were recommended by the cryptocurrency tracking app CoinTracking for tax advice, I knew they must be absolute pros.
Munro’s will be my accountants for life now. Nothing was too much trouble and everything has gone so smoothly.
Here’s what Carl fixed for me for my latest tax return:
reconciled complex history from various crypto exchanges, some of which are now defunct, which I had spent several days trying to get various AI models to assist with to no avail
fixed my balance issue in CoinTracking to accurately reflect my position
Corrected purchase and sales history for employee shares scheme
Adjust various mistakes from my previous accountants and carry forward the adjustments
Scrutinised previous tax returns to adjust missed capital losses from a kitchen renovation completed over a decade ago on an investment property that can now be used to offset future capital gains.
Provide clear advice on every single thing I asked with no hesitation. It’s so obvious that these guys have seen it all and done it all.
Because I’m with Munro’s now, I feel SO much more confident about some big financial moves where the nightmarish tax implications would otherwise boggle the mind.
Thank you so much!
By the way, I wasn’t asked to do this review or sent one of those “please review us on Google” emails. I am posting this because I’m so happy with the service I was provided, it sells itself and I suppose a perfect 5 star rating with 140+ reviews is a testament to the fact that all of Munro’s customers have a similar experience to me. If you have complex tax affairs I don’t think you’ll find anyone better.
Have been using Munro’s for over 30 years and have been completely satisfied with the friendliness and expert knowledge they provide. I would fully recommend anybody needing an accounting firm to use Munro’s. Well done Simon and the team.
