What Are Limited Company Accounts – and Why Do They Matter?
Every UK private limited company is legally required to prepare and submit annual accounts, regardless of trading activity. These accounts form a clear, accurate snapshot of your company’s financial standing – essential for compliance, tax calculations, and maintaining corporate transparency.
Your statutory accounts typically include:
• Notes to the Accounts
• Corporation Tax Return (CT600)
• Director’s Report (if applicable)
At MacnCo, we take the stress out of this process with a comprehensive, professional service that ensures full legal compliance
Legal Duties: What UK Law Requires of Limited Companies
Companies Act 2006 – Statutory Filing Obligations
All private limited companies in the UK must:
· Prepare true and fair annual financial statements
· File accounts with Companies House within 9 months of their financial year-end
· Maintain accounting records for at least 6 years
Company directors are personally responsible for ensuring compliance. Failure to file accounts correctly or on time can result in financial penalties and even director disqualification.
Corporation Tax & HMRC Requirements
All limited companies must also:
· File accounts in iXBRL format
· Pay any Corporation Tax owed within 9 months and 1 day after their year-end
Late or incorrect filings may lead to interest charges, late payment penalties, and HMRC investigations.
