Common questions

Frequently asked questions

What are the filing deadlines for a limited company?

Statutory accounts must be filed at Companies House within 9 months of your year end. The corporation tax return must be filed with HMRC within 12 months, and the tax itself paid within 9 months and 1 day. We track all of this for you.

Do I need an accountant for my limited company?

You’re not legally required to use one, but in practice the savings from proper tax planning far outweigh the fee — and the compliance risk of getting it wrong is significant. Most directors find it essential.

Can you take over from my current accountant?

Yes — we handle this all the time. We send a professional clearance letter, get the handover files, and take it from there. Smooth and straightforward.

Do you handle the director’s self assessment as well?

Yes, and we recommend doing it together — the company accounts and personal return are connected and should be planned together for the best tax outcome.
