Common questions
FAQs
Does my company qualify as a micro-entity?
For financial years starting on or after 6 April 2025, generally yes if it meets at least two of: turnover of £1 million or less, a balance sheet total of £500,000 or less, and no more than 10 employees on average. For earlier years the limits were £632,000 turnover and £316,000 balance sheet. Some companies are excluded whatever their size.
What's the difference between micro-entity and full statutory accounts?
Micro-entity accounts (FRS 105) require less disclosure and are simpler to prepare — full statutory accounts (FRS 102) are needed once you outgrow these thresholds.
Do I still need to file a Corporation Tax return separately?
Yes, your CT600 is filed alongside your accounts, we handle both together.
