Every limited company in the UK must file annual accounts and a Corporation Tax return (CT600). Doing it incorrectly can lead to penalties, missed tax savings, or unnecessary stress. At Melon Accountants, we manage the whole process. Our expert team prepares fully compliant year-end accounts and Corporation Tax calculations that fit your business activities, expenses, and allowances. As Chartered Tax Advisers, we don’t just crunch numbers; we look for ways to lower your liability through smart planning, allowable expenses, and timing. We take care of everything, from bookkeeping cleanup to depreciation schedules and submissions to HMRC and Companies House. We make year-end straightforward, accurate, and stress-free.
