Corporate Tax
The Company pays corporate tax (19% rate) on its profits, nine months after the end of the financial year.
VAT (Value Added Tax)
The VAT rate is 20% and applies to goods and services. There are also products and services that are subject to a lower or zero rate.
Registration for VAT (Value Added Tax - Current Rate 20%) is required only if the turnover of the company's transactions has exceeded in one year or less the registration limit, £ 85,000 for the tax year 2019-20. The Company can voluntarily submit an application for VAT registration, if it decides, from the first day.
Additional reasons that make the tax system in England particularly attractive are the following:
VAT exemption for transactions with all countries, inside and outside the UK, with businesses and individuals.
The United Kingdom also provides a provision for small and medium-sized companies.
Companies with a turnover of up to £ 85,000 (approximately € 95,000) have the right not to be registered in the VAT registers and to invoice without VAT companies and individuals inside and outside the UK. If they exceed this amount, they invoice companies and individuals with VAT in the UK, individuals and VAT outside the UK and companies without VAT.
Zero insurance contributions and unchanged costs - no service charge, tax advance, solidarity tax and extraordinary taxes.
Apart from the corporate tax paid 21 months after the establishment of the company, you are not charged with any other mandatory contribution or additional tax. So you have more liquidity as well as more money to save or invest in your business and your family!
Entrepreneurs who chose London increased their net income and expanded their business and turnover. In addition:
They strengthened the prestige of their company and their credibility.
They increased their liquidity.
They facilitated their entry into new markets.
