Limited Company Matters
We offer a Company Secretarial service from formation to strike off.
Company Secretarial, for most of our clients we deal with the annual filing of accounts and annual return to Companies House and related matters, we also offer the facility of other company secretarial services including completion of dividend vouchers, minutes, share transfers and other items. A number of our clients use this service which in view of recent Inland Revenue enquiries has proved beneficial. If you want to use this service please contact us.
Letterhead, recently a small number of clients have received a letter from Companies House advising that their letterhead is incorrect, usually due to registered office, registration number or directors not being shown. They usually give 7 days or similar notice to change it or face proceedings. Please contact us if you need help.

Tax Returns
A number of clients have received letters from the Inland Revenue Compliance office. It advises that the Tax Return is a legal document and that something in the return has brought it to their attention. This letter is an initial enquiry so that if there is a mistake the tax-payer can re-submit the tax return or otherwise explain if there is an item that may be different to that from the last year. If Inland Revenue is not satisfied this may lead to an investigation. Please do not ignore these letters but contact us straight away. See also the insurance item above.
Tax Returns if hard copy by the end of October otherwise if done by us, will be sent as soon as we have the information. Last day for electronic submission is 31st January. Late payments attract interest and surcharges and if much to low can attract daily penalties as well. Contact us for help or advice.
