Company Tax Returns

Skip contents

Overview

Your company or association must file a Company Tax Return if you get a 바카라 사이트˜notice to deliver a Company Tax Return바카라 사이트™ from HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC).

You must still send a return if you make a loss or have no Corporation Tax to pay.

You do not send a Company Tax Return if you바카라 사이트™re self-employed as a sole trader or in a partnership - but you must send a Self Assessment return.

What it involves

When you file your tax return, you work out your:

  • profit or loss for Corporation Tax (this is different from the profit or loss shown in your annual accounts)
  • Corporation Tax bill

You can either get an accountant to prepare and file your tax return or do it yourself.

If you have a limited company, you may be able to file your accounts with Companies House at the same time as your tax return.

Deadlines

The deadline for your tax return is 12 months after the end of the accounting period it covers. You바카라 사이트™ll have to pay a penalty for late filing if you miss the deadline.

There바카라 사이트™s a separate deadline to pay your Corporation Tax bill. It바카라 사이트™s usually 9 months and one day after the end of the accounting period.
