Limited Company Accounts, Handled from Start to Finish

Take care of your company, while we handle the compliance

Running a limited company gives you credibility, tax efficiency and protection, and a longer list of filing obligations than any sole trader faces. Statutory accounts, corporation tax, confirmation statements, director payroll, dividend paperwork: each has its own deadline and its own penalty for getting it wrong.

At JML Accountancy we take care of all of it, so you can run the company while we run the compliance. Based in Godalming, we support limited companies across Surrey and Hampshire with clear, fixed-fee support and a named accountant who knows your business.

Everything Your Company Needs to File… In One Place

Our limited company service brings your statutory obligations together under one roof with one point of contact, and one predictable fee.

What Limited Company Accounts services will I receive with JML?

Statutory Year-End Accounts

We prepare your annual accounts in the correct format for your company size (including FRS 105 micro-entity and FRS 102 Section 1A small company standards) and file them with Companies House ahead of your deadline.

You get a plain-English summary of what the numbers say about your business, not just a PDF of the filing.

Corporation Tax, Coordinated

Your year-end accounts feed directly into your company’s corporation tax return. As part of this service we prepare the figures, identify the reliefs and allowances your company is entitled to, and manage the CT600 submission through our dedicated tax returns service: one team, no handoffs and no gaps between your accounts and your tax.

Confirmation Statements and Company Records

We file your annual confirmation statement, keep your Companies House record accurate, and flag anything that needs updating when your circumstances change like new shareholders, a new registered office or changes to people with significant control.

Director Pay and Dividends, Done Properly

How you take money out of your company matters. We set up and run a compliant approach to salary and dividends: payroll for your director’s salary, dividend vouchers and board minutes for distributions, and a check each year that your mix still makes sense as rates and thresholds change.

Bookkeeping and VAT That Plug Straight In

Most of our limited company clients combine this service with cloud bookkeeping on Xero and, where registered, our VAT returns service. Everything connects: your day-to-day records flow into your year-end accounts without the January scramble for receipts.

Who is this service for?

Newly Formed Companies

Just incorporated, or about to?

We set everything up correctly from day one: corporation tax registration, payroll scheme, share structure records and a bookkeeping system that fits how you work ensuring your first year end is uneventful in the best possible way.

Companies Switching Accountant

Moving to JML is simpler than most directors expect.

We handle the professional clearance letter, collect your records from your previous accountant, and review your last filed accounts as standard: catching anything that needs attention before it becomes a problem.

Growing Companies That Have Outgrown the DIY approach

If you’ve been filing your own micro-entity accounts and it’s starting to feel unmanageable, you’re in good company.

As turnover grows, so do the risks: VAT registration, first employees, retained profits and dividend planning. We take over cleanly and put structure around your growth.

FAQs

We work on fixed monthly fees agreed before we start, based on your company’s size and the services you need: typically covering accounts, corporation tax, payroll and confirmation statement as a bundle. You’ll know the exact figure before you commit, and questions during the year are included, not billed by the minute.

Yes. We manage the switch regularly. We request professional clearance, collect your records, and pick up wherever your previous accountant left off, even part-way through an accounting period. There’s no need to wait for your year end.

Not automatically. HMRC requires a self assessment return if you have untaxed income to report (such as dividends above the allowance) or if they’ve issued you a notice to file. We review your position each year and handle the return where one is needed.

Yes, and sooner is better. Companies House penalties escalate the longer accounts are outstanding, and persistent non-filing risks the company being struck off. We regularly bring overdue companies up to date and can liaise with Companies House and HMRC on your behalf.

For most owner-directors it’s a combination of a small salary and dividends, but the right mix depends on your circumstances, other income and current tax rates. We review this with every client at least annually and set up the payroll and dividend paperwork to match.

Yes, we support limited companies across Surrey and Hampshire, including Guildford, Farnham, Farnborough and Petersfield, and our cloud-based systems mean distance is never a barrier. Many clients rarely need to visit us at all, and the kettle’s always on if you do.
