Company Formation for Billericay: the basics
Starting a company in Billericay? We incorporate it at Companies House, register it for Corporation Tax and, where appropriate, PAYE and VAT, set up the bookkeeping software and talk you through the director’s responsibilities, so you start compliant rather than catching up later.
Businesses in England follow UK-wide rules for Income Tax, National Insurance, VAT and Corporation Tax, with Stamp Duty Land Tax applying to property purchases. Local business rates are set and collected by the local authority.
Why Billericay businesses use IGI for company formation
Switching handled for you
We request clearance and records from your previous accountant and pick up where they left off. There is no charge for moving to IGI.
Tax planning through the year
We review your position before the year ends, when there is still time to act on pensions, timing of income, allowances and the salary and dividend mix.
Making Tax Digital ready
Cloud bookkeeping with bank feeds and receipt capture is included, so your Billericay business keeps digital records that meet HMRC’s requirements.
Company Formation questions
Answers for Billericay clients. Your accountant can go into detail for your situation.
Companies House usually approves an online incorporation within 24 hours on a working day. HMRC registrations follow in the days after.
It depends on profit level, risk, how you want to pay yourself and your plans for growth. We run the comparison for your numbers before you decide; a company is not automatically better.
A limited company must have its own account because it is a separate legal person. Sole traders are not legally required to, but it makes bookkeeping far simpler and MTD easier.
Annual accounts and a Corporation Tax return, a confirmation statement each year, PAYE submissions if you have payroll, and VAT returns if registered. All of these are covered by your plan.
Self Assessment is due online by 31 January; company accounts go to Companies House 9 months after the year end; Corporation Tax is payable 9 months and 1 day after the year end; VAT returns are due 1 month and 7 days after each quarter; payroll submissions are due on or before each pay day.
A dedicated accountant, unlimited support, cloud bookkeeping software, the statutory filings for your business type, deadline reminders and a year-end review. The exact services are listed in your quote.
