    The UK is a capitalist country with a long history, and its tax system is very sound, and the following tax issues must be considered when you want to operate in the UK after registration

    1) After the company is successfully registered, if the company needs to actually operate or have any business activities in the UK, it must be registered with the UK Internal Revenue Service;

    2) From the date of successful incorporation, there must be income and expenditure records and bills every month, and at least once every three months. (It is best to have a local accountant do the declaration on your behalf).

    3) Companies with an annual turnover of more than £60,000 must apply for a VAT number (VAT No.).)

    4) Annual profits above £60,000 must be subject to income tax, but unless the company wants to go public, UK accountants will generally keep the declared profits below £60,000.

    Therefore, the specific analysis of specific issues, whether it is necessary to pay taxes is judged according to the actual situation of the company, and the British company should try not to open an account in the UK after registration, or choose to register a BVI company in the registered offshore company, and direct tax exemption is also a good choice.

    It takes about 8,000-12,000 to register a UK company, depending on the actual situation.

    1) More than one shareholder or director (nationality is not limited);

    2. All shareholders must be at least 18 years old.

    3) The registered capital is at least 1 pound, and our company can provide up to 1 million pounds, which does not need to be actually in place (if the capital exceeds 1 million pounds, it must pay 5/1000 stamp tax);

    4) Provide the address of the company incorporated in the UK;

    Information to be provided.

    3) Copies of ID cards or passports of directors and shareholders;

    4) Registered capital (£1 - £1,000,000, no actual capital contribution required).

    1. Capital contribution by the registered shareholders of the company.

    Shareholders are the owners of the company, and the shareholders' general meeting composed of shareholders is the highest authority of the company.

    The amount of capital contribution, that is, the funds that shareholders want to subscribe when they are registered in the industrial and commercial registration. Usually we will take the proportion of the capital contribution of the first east to the total registered capital as the proportion of the equity of the first east.

    Generally, in the early stage of starting a business, it is recommended that the number of shareholders should not be too large to avoid the decentralization of power due to too many shareholders. For early core employees and minority shareholders, it is recommended to use the equity holding agreement to hold on behalf of the company, and not to enter the list of shareholders published by the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, so that the operation can simplify the equity structure while protecting rights and interests. A simple and healthy shareholding structure is conducive to the smooth financing of the company, as well as the rapid completion of business registration and changes.

    The amount of capital contributed by shareholders involves the shareholding structure of the company, and it is the most important matter to be considered and decided in the preparation stage for company registration.

The non-monetary property used as capital contribution shall be appraised and verified, and the property shall not be overvalued or undervalued.

    Article 28 Obligation to make capital contributions.

If the shareholder makes a monetary contribution, the full amount of the monetary contribution shall be deposited into the bank account opened by the limited liability company; Where non-monetary assets are used to make capital contributions, the formalities for the transfer of property rights shall be completed in accordance with law. If a shareholder fails to pay the capital contribution in accordance with the provisions of the preceding paragraph, in addition to paying the full amount to the company, it shall also bear the liability for breach of contract to the shareholder who has paid the capital contribution in full on time.
