FAQ
What people usually ask us.
When are my accounts and tax return due?
Corporation Tax is payable nine months and one day after the end of your accounting period. The CT600 return is due 12 months after the period ends, and the accounts for Companies House nine months after your year end. Your first accounts have a longer deadline, counted from the date of incorporation. We track all of them.
What is a confirmation statement?
An annual filing with Companies House confirming that the company's details, such as its directors, shareholders and registered office, are up to date. We prepare and file it for you.
What rate of Corporation Tax will my company pay?
Most companies pay 19% on profits up to £50,000 and 25% on profits above £250,000, with marginal relief in between. What applies to you depends on your profits and company structure, which we review when we prepare your return.
