    not sure I agree with the double taxation comment. wages you pay yourself are taken from company profits BEFORE company tax is calculated. But if you pay yourself above NI threshold and don’t claim the current exemption, you’ll be paying employers NI as well as employees NI, so that’s not great. Also there’s the horrid dividend tax they introduced, which is a tax on money you pay yourself as a dividend to avoid NI. such fun!

      Isn’t that what double tax is? First corporation tax then income tax on dividends.

      You don't pay corporation tax on the money given out as income. You'll just pay the income tax.

      Dividends tax: You pay corporation tax on the profits made. You then pay income on the dividends you take out of the company as dividends. Hence, double taxation

    Very insightful video! I set up my company with you but I had to use my own address at the beginning then your offices. Is there a way of removing the home address now that it’s moved to your office address as correspondence ? Thanks 🙏

    • @Simon-Misiewicz-US-UK-Taxes
      @Simon-Misiewicz-US-UK-Taxes  Před 8 měsíci

      There will be no way of removing previous addresses used on companies house as it is an official record, sadly!

    • @lyhamroad4431
      @lyhamroad4431 Před 8 měsíci +1

      Ah damn but thanks for answering anyway. I should have put your company name right at the beginning. Lesson learnt 🙂@@Simon-Misiewicz-US-UK-Taxes

    I do think public disclosure can be weird. Anyone can dig up your info on the internet.

    • @Simon-Misiewicz-US-UK-Taxes
      @Simon-Misiewicz-US-UK-Taxes  Před 7 měsíci +1

      I agree with you

      I moved to the UK, and I find it very strange that the finances of private companies are also made public. I tried to Google why this law was created, but I don't find an answer. Now I'm asking, how such a law was passed??

    • @Simon-Misiewicz-US-UK-Taxes
      @Simon-Misiewicz-US-UK-Taxes  Před 5 měsíci

      It’s just the way that UK law works. I know that if I switch a switch a light comes on. I don’t need to know why. I just need to know it does it that way. You are not going to charge it

    In your opinion is better a LTD in UK o Ireland for a non resident? The business who want to create is motion picture and distribution movie company.

      @Simon-Misiewicz-US-UK-Taxes  Před 4 měsíci

      This is a great question, but I’m not sure on the right person to answer it for you. I would always say that you should have a limited company based with most of the activity takes place.

    can my children be included as directors/shareholders in a UK Ltd Company?

      With anything this sophisticated, I would advise you get Tax advice from your accountant before you do anything

    I am a buy to let landlord through limited company - How do treat the cost of intial purchase of domestic items( not replacement)? - Can be claimed as expenses or capital allowance for Ltd ? Many thanks in advance

    • @Simon-Misiewicz-US-UK-Taxes
      @Simon-Misiewicz-US-UK-Taxes  Před 7 měsíci

      Any new items will be capital in nature

    • @rajp4812
      @rajp4812 Před 7 měsíci

      Thank you for your prompt reply as always.
      If capitalised the domestic item then can claim capital allowance ?

    • @Simon-Misiewicz-US-UK-Taxes
      @Simon-Misiewicz-US-UK-Taxes  Před 7 měsíci

      Only sometimes and it depends on the item and on the property type. single let properties do not benefit from capital allowances

      I would only usually see this if it is an insurance company. The set up needs to be checked

      @lalgonultas you may be best to get some legal/tax advice before you do too much on your own 👍
