Corporate tax compliance that keeps more in your business.
We handle corporation tax returns, planning, and compliance for limited companies across Staffordshire. The same partner who does your year-end accounts reviews your tax position.
Staying compliant. Not paying more than you owe.
Corporate tax is one of the areas where good advice pays for itself. We work with limited companies to make sure their returns are accurate, filed on time, and structured to reflect the business's actual position.
Philip Barnes & Co handles corporate tax compliance and planning for limited companies. That means preparing and filing the corporation tax return, calculating the liability, and making sure the company is not paying more tax than it is required to.
Compliance and planning are handled together, not as separate engagements. The partner who reviews your year-end accounts is the same person who considers your tax position — so nothing falls between the two.
The full compliance cycle, managed by one partner.
From the initial computation through to filing with HMRC, we manage the process so you do not have to track deadlines or chase paperwork.

01
Corporation tax return
Preparation and filing for limited companies.We prepare the CT600, compute the liability, and file with HMRC within the statutory deadline. iXBRL tagging is included where required.
-
02
Tax planning
Reviewed alongside the year-end accounts, not after.We consider the company's tax position as part of the year-end process, so planning opportunities are identified before the return is filed, not once the window has closed.

03
HMRC correspondence
We deal with HMRC directly on your behalf.If HMRC raises an enquiry or requests information, we handle the correspondence. You are kept informed; you are not expected to manage the process yourself.
Limited companies that want one point of contact.
This service is for limited companies — owner-managed businesses in particular — where the directors want their corporate tax handled by the same firm that prepares their accounts. We act for companies across Staffordshire and the surrounding area.
We have also acted for business owners who are high-worth individuals, where personal and corporate tax affairs need to be considered together. In those cases, the corporate tax engagement sits alongside personal tax planning rather than running in parallel with a separate adviser.
Talk to a partner before the year-end window closes.
