Corporation tax planning with a local accounting firm

Corporation tax is charged on your company profits, but how you plan through the year affects what you owe. We match you with a local firm that prepares your return and plans ahead to keep the bill as low as the rules allow.

What's involved

What corporation tax planning covers.

  • Preparing and filing your CT600 corporation tax return with HMRC
  • Claiming capital allowances on equipment, vehicles and assets
  • Using reliefs and allowances available to your company
  • Planning the timing of profits, dividends and director pay
  • Reviewing whether R&D or other specialist reliefs apply
  • Forecasting your bill so you can set money aside in good time

Why it matters

Many companies pay more corporation tax than they need to because allowances and reliefs go unclaimed. A local firm plans across the year rather than scrambling at the deadline. You keep more profit in the business, legally.

For most companies it is due nine months and one day after the end of your accounting period, with the return filed within twelve months. A local firm will track both dates for you.

Sensible planning around allowances, reliefs, timing and remuneration can reduce what you owe within the rules. The firm we match you with focuses on legitimate planning, never anything that puts you at risk with HMRC.
