Frequently Asked Questions

We can have your company registered with Companies House within 24 hours. The full setup including HMRC registrations, bank accounts, and accounting software typically takes 1-2 weeks.

This depends on your expected profits, risk appetite, and growth plans. Generally, a limited company becomes more tax-efficient when profits exceed £30,000-£40,000. We'll analyse your specific situation and recommend the best structure.

As a limited company director, you'll need to file annual accounts, a confirmation statement, corporation tax returns, and personal self assessment returns. If registered for VAT or PAYE, those returns are also required. We handle all of this for you.
