Corporation Tax Returns Barnstaple

Your corporation tax return, handled.

Most Barnstaple limited companies only look at their tax position when the deadline is close — by which point the options narrow considerably. The CT600 is due nine months after your year end, but knowing the bill well before that is achievable. Fixed monthly fee, ICAEW chartered, same-day replies.

  • Tax position visible months before the CT600 deadline
  • CT600 filed accurately and on time — no penalties, no chasing
  • Year-end accounts and Companies House filing handled together
  • A named, ICAEW chartered accountant who answers the same day

No long-term contract. If it is not working after three months, you leave with clean books and nothing owed.

Sound familiar?

Still not sure what your corporation tax bill will be?

Running a limited company in Barnstaple means a CT600 to file, a tax bill to pay and a nine-month deadline after your year end. Most directors look at their tax position properly only when the deadline is approaching — by which point the options are limited and the pressure is on. It is entirely solvable. It just takes longer the closer you leave it.

  • No clear view of the tax bill until the deadline is already close
  • Risk of a late or inaccurate CT600 and the HMRC penalties that follow
  • No tax planning done throughout the year — paying more than necessary

What handled looks like

Your tax position is visible throughout the year, not just at the end of it. The CT600 is filed accurately and on time as a matter of course. And because the books are current, there is room to plan — not just react.

  • Tax position visible months before the CT600 is due — not the week before
  • CT600 filed accurately and on time — penalties avoided as a matter of course
  • Tax planning done throughout the year, so the bill is rarely a surprise
  • One fixed monthly fee covering accounts, CT600 and Companies House filing

What you get

What your monthly fee covers

Three things that keep your corporation tax position clear, your filings compliant and your year end entirely manageable — for one fixed monthly fee.

01

Corporation Tax Return and CT600

Your CT600 is prepared from clean, current records and filed with HMRC well before the nine-month deadline. There are no last-minute scrambles and no penalties from rushed or inaccurate submissions. You will know the figure before it is due — not the morning HMRC sends the payment reminder.

Included as standard
02

Year-End Accounts and Companies House

Statutory accounts prepared and filed with Companies House, alongside your corporation tax return, in one coordinated process. Nothing slips through because the two are handled together. Your confirmation statement is covered too — no separate invoice, no separate chase.

No extras, no surprises
03

Ongoing Tax Planning Throughout the Year

Once the books are current, your tax liability is visible throughout the year rather than just at the end of it. That means time to plan dividends, expenses and timing — not just file and pay. Most clients have a clear view of their bill three to four months before it falls due.

Proactive, not reactive
What clients say

Why Swift

Why Barnstaple Ltd companies choose Swift

There is no shortage of accountants in Devon. Here is what is different about working with one who is ICAEW chartered, locally based and already familiar with the pressures small limited companies face.

📋

Your tax position known early

Because your books are kept current throughout the year, your corporation tax liability is visible well before the deadline — not calculated in a rush after the year end closes. That means time to make sensible decisions about dividends, expenses and timing. The bill becomes a known quantity rather than an unwelcome surprise.

💬

Replies the same day

Questions get answered the day you ask them. Not logged, not queued, not passed on. If you want to know whether a director expense is allowable before you pay it, you will have an answer before the end of the working day. It is a small thing that makes a material difference over twelve months.

🔒

One price, clearly agreed

Your CT600, year-end accounts and Companies House filing are covered under a fixed monthly fee that does not change based on how many questions you ask or how complex the year turns out to be. No hourly billing, no invoice arriving larger than expected. Your accounting cost is as predictable as any other fixed overhead.

Getting started

Up and running in four steps

Four steps from enquiry to everything being handled. No complicated onboarding, no paperwork that needs a solicitor.

1

Send your enquiry

Fill in the form on this page. Kieran reads every enquiry and responds the same day with a clear next step. No automated holding messages, no waiting to be assigned to someone you have not heard of.

2

A short discovery call

Around twenty minutes to understand your company setup, current records and what needs sorting. By the end of the call you will know exactly what is covered, what it costs and when we start. No obligation to proceed.

3

We handle the setup

Your accounting software is connected, your records are brought up to date and your filing calendar is confirmed. If the books are behind, we will catch them up and tell you the cost of doing so upfront. You do not need to do much except confirm you want to proceed.

4

Ongoing — nothing falls through

Monthly bookkeeping, your annual accounts, CT600, Companies House confirmation statement — handled as a matter of course, each year, without you needing to chase. You will know your tax position well before it becomes urgent. Surprises are largely avoidable when the books are current.

“One of the friendliest accounting companies I’ve ever spoken to. I was fairly stressed about all of the big terms HMRC use, but Kieran explained everything in the best possible way, told me the price they’d charge after 5 minutes of speaking.”

Questions

Questions Barnstaple directors usually ask first

Yes — though the savings depend on your circumstances. The most common missed opportunities are poorly timed dividends, director expenses that were never claimed and pension contributions that reduce taxable profit. None of these require aggressive planning. They just require someone to look at the position before the year end closes, not after.
Once your books are current, your tax liability becomes visible throughout the year rather than only at year end. Most clients have a reasonable estimate three to four months before it falls due — long enough to plan payment, not just react to it. We will not give you a precise figure until the accounts are finalised, but you will not be working in the dark.
It is why most people come to us. Getting up to date takes a little longer at the start and may involve a one-off catch-up cost — we will confirm the amount before starting, so there are no surprises. Once current, keeping it current is straightforward.
No. Month-to-month, cancel with a month’s notice. We would rather keep clients because the service is worth it than because the contract makes leaving awkward.
