Accessing HMRC Online as a LTD Company?

[Taxed]

Hello,

I have a Ltd Company and would like to create an account on the HMRC website so I can view my account details and tax stuff for the LTD company.

I've created a personal account which lets me see my personal tax details, my state pension status etc.

But I can't see how to register for my LTD company. Any advice?

The website seems quite cryptic and the links take me the online documentation rather than how to register as a LTD company.

Do I even have to register a separate account or can I view it all from my personal account?

Thanks!

If you login to Government Gateway you should be able to register for services such as Corporation Tax, VAT Online and PAYE for Employers without needing to register a separate account for your company (although you could register separately if you wanted to).

Which takes me to this page, which is baffling: https://www.gov.uk/log-in-register-hmrc-online-services/register

Thanks!

Clicking "have set up a limited company, or other organisation that needs to pay Corporation Tax " leads you to this page.

Thanks, then on the next screen I selected "I want to sign up to use the online service for a tax for which the business is already registered".

Then I select 'Individual'.

Then 'Self Assessment (SA)'

But then I'm just logged in as me, not as the company?

You need to select organisation rather than individual.

Thanks, will give that a try.

You seem to be under a misapprehension. For clarity, you are not the company, and the company is not you. You are both separate legal entities. Once you get used to thinking of the company as a completely separate thing, how to handle things will make more sense.

If you are logged in then you must have entered YOUR user name and password (or your browser auto-filled them).

You need to register the business.
