Why should you talk to an Accountant before you register a company?

Your accountant can help you understand what the requirements are to run a company and whether a company structure is even suitable for you or you will be better off run your business as a sole-trader.

Also, company matters can be complex and most people will hire an accountant to assist. Therefore, it is better to engage an accountant earlier so nothing slips through the cracks.

Here are some questions you should ask before registering the company:

  • How do I set up the company’s ownership structure and share capital?
  • What are the basic duties of company directors?
  • Do we need a shareholders’ agreement?
  • What are a memorandum and articles of association?
  • What is a difference in Companies House and HMRC?
  • Where do you submit a company’s annual accounts?
  • Where do you submit a company’s corporation tax return?
  • What information does a Companies house require on an annual basis?
  • How do I submit the company’s annual accounts?
  • How do I submit my company’s tax returns?
  • How does income tax work when making payments to directors and shareholders?
  • What are the due dates to submit returns to Companies House and HM Revenue & Customs?
  • What are the penalties for late submissions?
  • What should be a company’s registered office address?
  • Does a company need a company secretary?
  • How do I operate a payroll system?
  • How does VAT work?
  • Does every company have to charge VAT on its invoices?
  • How do I register for VAT purposes, and how do I then submit VAT returns?

"For the last four years 2E Accountants have been in charge of my bookeeping and accounts. During this time i have got the opportunity to know Riz and his staff very well. Apart from the obvious talent as a chartered accountant I found Riz and his team to be intelligent, honest and with an excellent work ethic. Their attention to details and the service attitude are the two most obvious strenghts and I can recommend 2E without hesitation."
