What is Corporation Tax?

Corporation Tax is a levy on the profits of companies and other incorporated entities in the UK. It applies to UK-resident companies and non-resident companies with a permanent establishment in the UK.

The current Corporation Tax rate in the UK is 25% as of April 2023, but this may vary depending on government policies and the specific circumstances of your business.

Key Corporation Tax Deadlines

  1. Filing the Company Tax Return (CT600): This must be submitted to HMRC within 12 months of the end of your accounting period.

  2. Payment of Corporation Tax: The payment is due 9 months and 1 day after the end of your accounting period.

  3. Quarterly Instalment Payments (QIP): Larger companies may need to pay their Corporation Tax in quarterly instalments if their taxable profits exceed a certain threshold.

Missing these deadlines can result in penalties and interest charges, so it's essential to stay on top of your tax obligations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) about Corporation Tax Accounting in Dorset

1. What is the Corporation Tax rate in the UK?

As of April 2023, the standard Corporation Tax rate in the UK is 25%. However, small companies with profits under £50,000 may qualify for the small profits rate of 19%.

2. What expenses are deductible for Corporation Tax in DT3 4?

Deductible expenses include costs that are "wholly and exclusively" for business purposes, such as salaries, office rent, equipment, and marketing expenses. However, capital expenditures are generally not deductible, though they may qualify for capital allowances.

3. Can I carry forward Corporation Tax losses?

Yes, trading losses can be carried forward to offset against future profits, reducing your future Corporation Tax liabilities. Additionally, losses can sometimes be carried back to claim a refund for previous years.

4. What happens if I miss the Corporation Tax payment deadline?

Missing the deadline for payment of Corporation Tax can result in penalties and interest charges. It's crucial to ensure timely payment to avoid these additional costs. At The Tax Advisors, we help you manage deadlines effectively to prevent any issues.
