Corporation Tax is declared to HM Revenue & Customs on a self-assessment basis. The Corporation Tax return is usually submitted along with a copy of the financial statements in iXBRL format and the corporation tax computation.
If your company has made profits exceeding £250,000, the Corporation Tax rate is 25 per cent. For profits of £50,000 or less, then the rate is 19 per cent. Any profits between these amounts may qualify for a marginal relief rate, which is calculated on the actual amount of profit your company made.
Typically, Corporation Tax is payable nine months and one day after the end of the financial year. With this in mind the entity’s Corporation Tax return is usually completed alongside the entity’s financial statements which again are usually due for filing with Companies House nine months after the end of the accounting period.
