LTD Question

[David Rod]

Hi,

I am about to start my LTD this month, I would like to know is it possible and appropriate to as director of the company pay myself for example 100% of company's profits and this way avoid Corporate Tax? I have figured that for example, if a company makes £30k in a fiscal year from which £28k is payed as salary I will have to pay income tax of 20% after allowance. and corporate tax rate of 19% (if didn't change since I've checked) deducted from £2000 net profit.

Please correct me if I am wrong. Is it the good way to stay almost the same with taxes after changing from Self-Employment to Limited?

I would get yourself an accountant as they can sort out the cheapest and most cost effective way of doing it for you.

I am sure someone will advise an answer to your question here though.

Good Luck!:)

If you pay yourself a salary of £28k, you will be paying income tax of 20%, NI of 11% plus employers NI of 12.8%. This is a great deal more than corporation tax at 21%.

You need an accountant, to explain the most tax efficient method of extracting money from your business.

Thank you for answers.
After all is it possible with LTD to stay on close-to-similar tax level as when self-employed under £30k a year?

[Williams lester]

On £30k a year you should be considerably better of as a limited company than a sole trader, provided you have no other income to report.

Thank you, and what way to take money from the £30k company would you suggest as an accountant?

I think first and foremost you need to understand the difference between being a sole trader and a limited company.

Can I ask you why you chose to be a limited company over a sole trader? Did you seek professional advice?

Kind Regards
