Who pays corporation tax?
Corporation tax is payable by all UK limited companies.
The following organisations may also need to pay it, even if they’re not incorporated: Members clubs, societies and associations Trade associations Housing associations Groups of individuals carrying out a business (such as co-operatives). If you’re a sole trader or partnership, you won’t pay corporation tax. Instead, you’ll pay income tax on your profits via a self-assessment tax return. You can find out more in our guide to income tax for the self-employed.
It is the responsibility of the company director to ensure that the corporation tax return has been submitted on time, and the tax bill has been paid – even if the company hires an accountant to prepare their calculations.
