How does business compliance work in the UK?
UK compliance is managed by two primary bodies: Companies House for corporate governance and HMRC for taxes. Key annual requirements include filing a Confirmation Statement (CS01) with Companies House, and filing statutory accounts and a Company Tax Return (CT600) with HMRC. VAT registration is required if turnover exceeds £90,000.
What are the key risks of non-compliance in the UK?
Non-compliance in the UK results in automatic, escalating penalties from HMRC for late tax filing and from Companies House for late accounts filing. Continued failure can lead to director disqualification, legal action, and the company being forcibly dissolved and struck off the official register, which harms credit and banking relationships.
