Limited company FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What does a limited company need to file each year?
Most limited companies must file annual accounts with Companies House and a corporation tax return with HMRC. Directors may also have personal Self Assessment obligations depending on income taken from the company.
When are company accounts and tax due?
Companies House filing deadlines depend on your accounting reference date. Corporation tax is usually payable within nine months and one day of your year end, with the return due twelve months after the period end.
What is Making Tax Digital and does it affect me?
Making Tax Digital (MTD) is HMRC's programme to move tax reporting online. Requirements depend on your income, business type, and the taxes you are registered for. We can advise what applies to you and help you keep compliant records.
What records should my company keep?
Typically you will need sales and purchase invoices, bank statements, payroll records, VAT records if registered, fixed asset details, loan agreements, and supporting documents for income and expenses.
Can SHIBY Accountants file my company returns on my behalf?
Yes. Once we have reviewed your records and agreed the figures with you, we can prepare and submit your company accounts and tax returns on your behalf and discuss any tax due.
