Our Services - Corporation Tax
What is Corporation Tax?
Corporation Tax in the UK is a tax that limited companies need to pay on their profits.
Corporation Tax is a bit like Income Tax for companies, but the difference is that companies don’t have a personal allowance. This means that as soon as your business starts making a profit, it needs to start paying Corporation Tax at the Corporation Tax rate (unless it’s previously made losses).
What does a limited company pay Corporation Tax on?
A company needs to pay Corporation Tax on the profits it makes from doing business (‘trading profits’), its investments, and selling assets for more than they cost (‘chargeable gains’ – company assets include land and property, equipment and machinery, and company shares).
