 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I highly recommend Imran to anyone looking for a reliable and knowledgeable accountant. He helped me sort out a very complicated backlog of accounts and prepared my overdue tax returns with professionalism and attention to detail. Throughout the process, he was incredibly patient, took the time to answer all of my questions, and explained everything clearly. He guided me through each step and helped rectify issues that had built up over time, making what felt like an overwhelming situation much more manageable. I'm very pleased with the service I've received and truly appreciate his support. If you need help with your accounts or taxes, I would highly recommend Imran.

The work was completed promptly, my tax return was successfully filed, and I received a refund of overpaid tax. I found the cooperation efficient and helpful. Special thanks to Muhammad Saifullah for his assistance.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We worked with a few different accountants before finally settling with Accotax, and we’re really glad we did. Their team is great. Abdul is responsive and easy to reach whenever I have a question, which makes a big difference. They take the time to understand how our business works and what our needs are. They are very knowledgeable, and when they don’t have the answer straight away, they take the time to look into it and get back to us quickly. Anum, who looks after our account on a day-to-day basis, including reconciling invoices and preparing the annual accounts, is amazing. She is professional, efficient, and follows the processes we have put in place together. She's also very quickin getting back to us whenever needed. We’re very happy to work with her and hope to continue doing so for as long as possible. Overall, Accotax has made our accounting experience much smoother and easier. We see them as a long-term partner as our business continues to grow. I would 100% recommend them.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have really impressed to date with all dealings with Accotax highly enough. From day one, they've made what can often be a complicated and stressful part of running a business feel straightforward and hassle-free. A special mention has to go to Anum, who has been friendly, incredibly responsive, and genuinely cares about providing the best possible service. No question is ever too much trouble, and she consistently goes above and beyond to make sure everything is dealt with efficiently. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend you to anyone looking for an accountant they can genuinely trust.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about limited company accounting.

What services are included in LCA's limited company accounting package?

Our service covers annual accounts preparation and filing with Companies House, CT600 Corporation Tax return, VAT returns (if registered), payroll for directors and employees, and director Self Assessment tax returns. We also provide ongoing tax planning advice tailored to your limited company.

Is LCA only for limited companies?

Yes, LCA works exclusively with UK limited companies. We do not serve sole traders or partnerships, which means our expertise is entirely focused on the specific compliance, filing, and tax planning needs of limited company directors.

How does LCA's pricing work?

LCA offers fixed, transparent fees with no hidden costs. You will know exactly what you pay upfront, with no surprise charges. Pricing is based on the complexity of your company's affairs, and we provide a clear quote before you commit.

What is the difference between annual accounts and a Corporation Tax return?

Annual accounts are statutory financial statements filed with Companies House, showing your company's financial position. A Corporation Tax return (CT600) is filed with HMRC to report your taxable profits and calculate tax due. Both are required each year, and LCA handles both for you.

When is the deadline for filing a CT600 return?

The CT600 must be filed with HMRC within 12 months of the end of your company's accounting period. However, any Corporation Tax due must be paid within 9 months and 1 day of the period end. LCA ensures both deadlines are met to avoid penalties.

What are the filing deadlines for Companies House?

Private limited companies must file annual accounts within 9 months of the year-end and a confirmation statement within 14 days of the review period. Late filing incurs automatic penalties starting at £150. LCA manages these filings to keep your company compliant.

How does LCA's online service work?

You securely upload your records (bank statements, invoices, receipts) to our online portal. We then prepare your accounts, tax returns, and other filings. You can communicate with your dedicated accountant via email or phone, and we handle all submissions electronically.

How do I get started with LCA?

Simply visit our website and sign up online. You will be asked for basic company details, then we will assign a dedicated accountant. After that, you can upload your records and we will begin work. It is a straightforward, paper-free process.
