About Company Creation
Starting a business is an exciting venture, and one of the first steps is deciding to form a company. Setting up a limited company in the UK offers a range of benefits, including limited liability protection, tax advantages, and a more professional image. If you’re ready to take your business idea to the next level, understanding the process of company creation is key.
At Alexander-David, we understand that creating a company is a big step, and we’re here to help make the process as seamless as possible. Whether you’re setting up a sole trader business or forming a limited company, we can guide you through every stage of company creation—from choosing the right structure to registering with HMRC and managing your ongoing compliance requirements.
Having “Ltd” or “Limited” in your company name can make your business appear more credible and trustworthy, which is attractive to potential clients, investors, and partners.
Limited companies can take advantage of a variety of tax benefits, such as paying corporation tax on profits rather than income tax, and claiming business expenses to reduce taxable profits.
As a director or shareholder of a limited company, you are not personally liable for the company’s debts (beyond your shareholding). This limits your financial risk to the amount of capital you’ve invested in the business.
