UK BUSINESS INCORPORATION

The United Kingdom (UK) is one of the largest and developed consumer markets and it’s a prestigious location for business. Even after Brexit, the UK is still a place of enormous opportunity. The UK is a favorable business destination for Indian businesspeople. To encourage competition, the UK government has made changes in its norms for easing the operation of the business, such as the Indian nation are free to open and operate the business in the UK depending upon the form of company and type of industry.

A corporation can not operate as a limited company until it is incorporated under the Companies Act 2006 at Companies House. Establishing the business as a company ensures that each year the directors are required to file such papers, such as annual reports and confirmation statements.

They must also notify Companies House of any changes, such as appointing or resigning directors or changing the registered office of the company.

Advantages of Business incorporation in UK

➲ Separate entity

A limited liability company is, in the eyes of law, a different organization to its owner. It is another great benefit of forming a limited company, rather than a sole trader. A single trader is seen as one person, and its owner is. A director of a limited company has insurance, should the company fail. Because the corporation is the independent party, it may conclude contracts and is responsible for all the business. As it is a separate entity contract/agreement will be entered in the name of the company.

➲ Low set up cost

There is a common misconception that forming your own limited company is a very costly process involving hiring a solicitor and preparing legal business paperwork.

It really surprises most people to learn that with our digital package, you can actually set up your own limited company for as little as £12.48. There's also no need to invest in expensive legal assistance either!

➲ Easy incorporation process

Incorporating a business in the UK is quick and easy, as there is a minimum legal requirement.

➲ Tax advantage

You are likely to pay less personal tax as a registered limited company than a sole self-employed trader. Your limited company income will be subject to corporate tax, which is 19 percent for the current fiscal year 2018/19 at the time of writing. There is also a goal for April 2020 to get this figure down to 17 percent.
