Companies House and HMRC Compliance Services for UK Limited Companies in Ilford
Deadlines managed. Filings handled. Compliance guaranteed. We take care of every obligation your company has to Companies House and HMRC, so you never have to worry about a missed deadline or an unexpected penalty.
Company Incorporation and Closure - Getting It Right From Day One
Starting a limited company in the UK requires more than just registering a name on the Companies House website. Done correctly, company incorporation involves choosing the right company structure, drafting appropriate articles of association, appointing directors and shareholders, issuing shares, registering for corporation tax with HMRC, and setting up a PAYE scheme if you are taking on staff.
At Aztax Advisors, we manage the full incorporation process on your behalf, advising on the most appropriate structure, preparing all necessary documents, registering your company with Companies House, and ensuring all HMRC registrations are in place from the start.
When it is time to close a company, whether through a voluntary strike-off, a Members’ Voluntary Liquidation (MVL), or dissolution, we manage the process carefully, ensuring all outstanding tax obligations are settled, final accounts are filed, and the company is wound down in full compliance with the Companies Act 2006 and HMRC requirements.
Annual Accounts and Corporation Tax Returns - Filed Accurately and on Time
UK limited companies have two annual filing obligations: statutory accounts to Companies House (typically within 9 months of the financial year end for private companies), and a corporation tax return (CT600) to HMRC (within 12 months of the accounting period end).
Failure to meet these deadlines results in automatic financial penalties, starting at £150 for Companies House late filing and escalating significantly with time. Persistent non-compliance can result in the company being struck off the register.
We manage both obligations together, preparing your statutory accounts, calculating your corporation tax liability, and submitting both filings electronically before the deadlines.
Payroll Processing and RTI Submissions - PAYE Compliance Made Simple
If your company employs staff or pays a director’s salary, you are required to operate a PAYE scheme and submit Real Time Information (RTI) reports to HMRC on or before each pay date. RTI submissions include Full Payment Submissions (FPS), Employer Payment Summaries (EPS), and Employer Annual Returns, all of which must be filed accurately and on time.
VAT Returns and Making Tax Digital (MTD) Compliance
Since April 2019, all VAT-registered businesses with taxable turnover above the registration threshold have been required to comply with Making Tax Digital for VAT, keeping digital records and submitting VAT returns using HMRC-compatible software.
We handle VAT return preparation and MTD-compliant submission for all of our compliance clients, using approved cloud accounting software to ensure every return is calculated correctly and submitted on time.
Annual Confirmation Statements (CS01) - Keeping Your Company Record Accurate
Every UK company registered at Companies House must file an annual Confirmation Statement (CS01) each year, confirming that the information held at Companies House about the company, including directors, registered address, shareholders, and share capital, is accurate and up to date.
The Confirmation Statement must be filed within 14 days of the review date. Failure to file results in Companies House issuing a late filing reminder and, ultimately, beginning the process of striking the company off the register.
Share Allotments, Transfers and Corporate Restructuring
Changes to your company’s share structure, whether issuing new shares to investors, transferring existing shares between shareholders, or reorganising your equity, require precise legal and administrative handling to comply with the Companies Act 2006 and HMRC’s Stamp Duty requirements.
We manage the full process of share allotments and transfers on your behalf, including preparing SH01 returns, stock transfer forms, J30 forms where applicable, and all related Companies House filings.
Board Minutes and Resolutions - Keeping Your Company Legally Documented
Under the Companies Act 2006, certain company decisions must be formally documented through board minutes and written resolutions. These include decisions to issue shares, approve accounts, appoint or remove directors, declare dividends, approve significant contracts, and authorise the company to take on borrowings.
We prepare clear, professionally drafted board minutes and resolutions for all routine and significant company decisions, ensuring your corporate records are maintained to the standard required by UK company law.
