A Corporation Tax Return is the return a limited company submits to HMRC to report its taxable profit or loss for an accounting period and to show how much Corporation Tax is payable. In practice, the return is usually made up of the CT600 form together with the company's accounts and a tax computation. A return is generally required for each accounting period, although the exact position depends on the company's circumstances and whether HMRC has issued a notice to file.
The CT600 is the form HMRC uses for a Company Tax Return. It carries the company's details, the accounting period covered, the figures from the accounts and computations, and the calculation of the tax due. It is normally submitted online, with the accounts and computations tagged in the format HMRC expects, and it must be authorised by a company director or by an agent acting on the company's behalf. Once submitted, HMRC issues an acknowledgement rather than an approval of the accounts themselves.
No. There is no separate micro-entity CT600 and micro-entity status does not create a distinct Corporation Tax regime. Micro-entity status relates to the accounting framework a company may use when preparing its accounts, and eligibility depends on the applicable criteria, the accounting period and the company's own circumstances. A micro company simply deals with Corporation Tax through the same CT600 process as other companies; what differs is the size and complexity of the figures and adjustments involved.
Preparation normally starts with a review of the company's financial information for the period and a look at the accounting profit or loss. From there, relevant tax adjustments are identified, such as disallowable expenses, capital allowances or other items treated differently for tax, and the taxable profit is determined. The return, accounts and computation are then prepared for submission to HMRC. For directors in Shefford, the practical starting point is usually a short conversation about what the company has done during the period and what records are available.
They are separate documents with separate purposes and separate recipients. Statutory accounts are prepared under the applicable accounting framework and delivered to Companies House where required. A Corporation Tax Return, such as a CT600, is submitted to HMRC and deals with taxable profit and the Corporation Tax position. Filing statutory accounts does not complete the company's tax return, and HMRC does not approve statutory accounts — nor does Companies House professionally approve accounts prepared by an accountant.
The profit shown in the statutory accounts is an accounting figure, and Corporation Tax rules can require adjustments to it. Some expenses may not be deductible for tax, some income may be treated differently, and capital items may attract allowances rather than being deducted as accounting depreciation. Preparing the tax computation is the step where those differences are worked through, so the figure the company is taxed on is not automatically the same as the accounting profit.
Not necessarily, and it is worth treating them as two separate dates. The deadline for submitting the Corporation Tax Return to HMRC and the deadline for paying the Corporation Tax due are governed by different rules, and payment can fall due before the return itself has to be filed. The exact dates depend on the accounting period and the rules in force, so it is sensible to confirm the position for your own company rather than assuming the two coincide.
Dormancy for Corporation Tax purposes is not the same as dormancy for Companies House purposes. A company can be dormant for tax because it has no taxable activity while still having Companies House obligations, and dormant status does not automatically remove those obligations. If HMRC has issued a notice to file, a return may still be required, and it is not the case that every dormant company must keep submitting returns indefinitely. The right approach depends on the company's particular situation.
