Who pays corporation tax?

All UK registered limited companies are liable for corporation tax in alignment with their financial year - this includes unincorporated associations that are making a profit. If you are in a partnership or a sole trader, you are not liable for corporation tax, instead, you will pay income tax. 

When do I pay corporation tax?

Corporation tax is due approximately 9 months and 1 day after your business' accounting period from the previous fiscal year.
