Key features of a UK
Limited
Shareholders' liability is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. Personal assets are generally protected from business debts and liabilities.
A Limited Company is a distinct legal entity from its owners (shareholders). This separation provides the company with legal rights and obligations.
The ownership of the company is determined by the distribution of shares among shareholders. Share capital represents the total value of shares issued.
The company is managed by directors who may also be the shareholders or appointed by shareholders to manage everyday operations.
A Limited Company must have a registered office address in the UK, which is the official address for legal and official communications.
Limited Companies are required to prepare annual financial statements that include a balance sheet, profit and loss account, and other relevant financial information.
Companies are required to file annual accounts and an annual return with Companies House, providing a snapshot of the company's financial health and ownership structure.
Limited Companies are subject to corporate tax on their profits. The current corporate tax rate in the UK is applied to the company's taxable profits.
Profits after tax can be distributed to shareholders in the form of dividends. Shareholders may be subject to additional taxation on dividends received.
