Overseas director of a UK Limited Company? Discover expert accounting services tailored to non-resident directors. Stay HMRC compliant, avoid penalties, and focus on growing your business.

If you're an overseas director of a UK Limited Company, understanding and meeting your legal accounting obligations is essential. Regardless of your location, your UK-registered company must comply with strict filing and tax requirements set by HMRC and Companies House.

At CG Incorporations, we specialise in helping non-UK resident directors manage their UK company accounts professionally and without hassle.

What Are Your Accounting Obligations as an Overseas Director?

Whether you live in Europe, Asia, the Middle East, or the Americas, your UK company must meet the same accounting and tax obligations as any UK-based business, including:

• Preparing and submitting annual accounts to Companies House
• Filing a Corporation Tax Return (CT600) with HMRC
• Maintaining accurate bookkeeping records
• Paying Corporation Tax (currently 19%–25% depending on profits)
• Registering for and filing VAT returns (if applicable)

Non-compliance can result in financial penalties, legal action, or even your company being struck off the register.
