Company Set-up
There are multiple tasks involved in setting up a limited company correctly. We can help to make this process as smooth as possible.
The Legislation
A limited company under UK law is one registered at Companies House. Once registered, a company is its own entity with its own legal rights and obligations, separate and distinct from those of its members and directors.
Directors' responsibilities
As a director of a limited company, you must:
-
Follow the company’s rules, shown in its articles of association
-
Keep company records and report changes
-
File your accounts and your Company Tax Return
-
Tell other shareholders if you might personally benefit from a transaction the company makes
-
Pay Corporation Tax
You may be fined, prosecuted or disqualified if you do not meet your responsibilities as a director.
