Our most frequently asked questions
Want to find out how we can help? Take a look at our FAQs to discover how we can improve your financial situation.
What tax do I pay as a Ltd company owner?
As a limited company director, it's important to be aware of your tax obligations. The most common limited company tax is Corporation Tax, which all limited companies must pay on their profits. You may also have to pay Income Tax and National Insurance on any salary or dividends you receive from the company. In addition, if your company has employees, you'll need to contribute towards their income tax and national insurance through PAYE. It's also worth noting that you may be liable for VAT if your business has a turnover above a certain threshold, as well as potential capital gains tax when selling business assets. Staying on top of these taxes can be daunting, but seeking professional advice can help ensure that you meet all of your Ltd Company Tax requirements.
Do Limited companies need an accountant?
When you first start a limited company, there's a lot to think about in terms of admin and organisation. One key question is whether or not to use an accountant. While there is no legal requirement to do so, there are many benefits to be gained from enlisting the help of a professional. Accountants can take care of your annual accounts, company tax returns, and tax registration for new companies. They can also offer advice on payroll, VAT and self-assessment. As a result, using an accountant can save you considerable time and stress. So if you're unsure whether to use one or not, it's worth considering the pros and cons.
Can an accountant help set up a limited company?
Accountants are trained professionals who are expert in managing finances. They can provide valuable insights and advice on how to save money and grow your business. Most accountants can also set up a limited company on your behalf, either for free if you appoint them as your accountant or for a fixed fee. This can be a great way to protect your personal assets from liability and manage your tax affairs more efficiently. If you're considering setting up a limited company, talk to your accountant first to see if it's the right move.
