Worth knowing

Rules that come up in this work

CIS deductions

Under the Construction Industry Scheme, contractors deduct 20% from a registered subcontractor's labour invoices, or 30% if unregistered, and pay it to HMRC. The subcontractor reclaims the deductions against their actual tax through Self Assessment, usually producing a refund because deductions are on turnover while tax is on profit. Contractors file a monthly return by the 19th.

Confirmation statements and identity verification

Companies House has tightened its requirements under the Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act: every company needs a registered email address and an appropriate registered office, every statement includes a lawful-purpose declaration, and every director and PSC must verify their identity. The confirmation statement, due annually with a £50 fee, is where most of this is confirmed.

Closing a company

Voluntary strike-off is available only to solvent companies. One that owes money it cannot pay needs a creditors' voluntary liquidation through a licensed insolvency practitioner, and directors who dissolve an insolvent company face personal consequences. For a solvent company the process takes three to four months from filing the DS01, with notice to creditors and shareholders within seven days.

Switching accountants

Changing accountant is simpler than most people fear. You authorise the new firm, which writes to the old one for professional clearance and your records; the outgoing accountant must hand over your own documents and usually does within two weeks. The new firm registers as your agent with HMRC and picks up the next filing. There is no need to wait for a year end.

Payments on account

A common surprise in Self Assessment is the January payment that is far larger than expected. That is the balancing payment for the year just ended plus the first payment on account for the year ahead, which HMRC sets at half of the bill just calculated. We put the figure in your hands months ahead and tell you how to adjust it legitimately when circumstances change.

The Self Assessment calendar

Self Assessment runs on a fixed annual cycle. Registration by 5 October following the tax year, online filing and payment by 31 January, and a second instalment on 31 July for those making payments on account. The penalties for lateness are automatic and escalate monthly, which is why we file early and chase approvals well before the window closes.

Making Tax Digital for Income Tax

MTD for Income Tax replaces one annual return with quarterly digital updates and a year-end declaration, submitted from software. The threshold is gross trading and property income, measured two years earlier, and started at £50,000 in April 2026 before falling to £30,000 in April 2027. Anyone affected needs digital record keeping in place before their start date, not after.

Questions

Crypto Tax questions from Courtfield

What if I am a trader rather than an investor?

HMRC rarely accepts that an individual is trading in crypto; the bar is very high and the badges of trade must be met. If you are trading, profits are income and losses are trading losses. For almost everyone the capital gains treatment applies, and we tell you plainly which side of the line you are on.

How far back do I need to go?

The pool cost of what you hold today depends on every purchase you have ever made, so the computation must start from your first transaction even if you only need to report recent years. If earlier years were under-reported, we quantify the position and advise on disclosure, which HMRC treats far more leniently than discovery.

Are NFTs treated the same as coins?

Each NFT is a separate asset, so pooling does not apply; the gain is proceeds less the cost of that specific token including gas fees. Creating and selling NFTs regularly may be trading income rather than capital gains. Royalties received are income. We classify each case from the facts.

Do I need to register for Self Assessment just for crypto?

If your total disposals exceed £50,000 in the year, or your gains exceed the £3,000 allowance, or you have taxable crypto income, yes. Register by 5 October after the tax year. Since 2024/25 the return has a dedicated section for cryptoassets. We handle registration where you are not already filing.

I received an HMRC letter about crypto. What should I do?

Do not ignore it and do not reply without the figures. HMRC's nudge letters are sent where exchange data suggests undeclared activity. We prepare the full report, work out what should have been declared, and draft the response, including a voluntary disclosure where tax is owed, which reduces penalties substantially compared with being caught.

How is the fee set?

By transaction count. Up to 500 transactions across all exchanges and wallets is £199 for the report alone or £279 with your Self Assessment filed. Over 500 is £399. A response to an HMRC nudge letter, including the report and the reply, is £249. We confirm the band from your exports before starting.

How do I get started from Courtfield, Kensington and Chelsea?

Message us on WhatsApp or email with a sentence about your business and what you need. We reply in working hours with any questions and a fixed fee for crypto tax. Once you confirm, we tell you exactly which records to send and the work begins. Most Courtfield clients are set up within a day.

Which deadlines matter most for crypto tax?

The next four dates that apply to crypto tax are shown at the top of this page, calculated from today. For Courtfield clients we diarise every one of them from the day you join and send reminders before each, so the work is done in good time rather than in the last week before a penalty.
