Property management Limited company, is it classed as dormant for Companies House and CT?
I am a leaseholder of a shop unit. The whole property is four flats and four shops, the developer handed over the freehold and all leaseholders decided the safest route was to form a limited company and register the freehold to the limited company. We registered with companies house and HMRC. One share per unit. We all pay into a bank account and take money out for repairs and insurance so no trading/profit as such, though some years there is a surplus left in the bank. I need to pull together and submit some accounts but after looking at CH website many similar companies appear to be declared as dormant and only declare the share holding not even balance at the bank. 1.Should I tell Companies House we are dormant as currently shown as active? 2. Will they do that retrospectively back to Jan 2023? 3. does it make a difference as there are shop units as well as flats? Thanks for any help on this. -
RE: Incorrectly registered with self-assessment and earning income overseas
Deregister or make sure you use supplementary pages SA109 to record your residence and domicile status on your Tax Return. You can also safeguard your UK pension by paying class 2 national insurance while you are abroad in case you intend to return to the UK. -
RE: Return of goods sold to Italy
HMRC response - Ask the sender to write ‘Returned goods — relief claimed’ clearly on the package and its accompanying import declaration. The declaration must include a complete and accurate description of the goods, their quantity and value. If you’re registered for VAT, make sure your VAT number is quoted on the declaration (CN 22 or CN23)."You can speak to the courier who will submit import declarations and explain what documents are required. As far as I am aware CN22/23 only covers 'Post' as in goods sent through the post office of the export country it doesn't cover sent by courier -
RE: CHIEF UK Export - EXW Incoterm
Ex- works - Company B pick up goods at the door of company A, company A do not have any involvement in the export, it is up to company B to take care of everything. If B are not established in the UK then they cannot be the exporter and it is not likely the agent will act. Ex-works is not a good idea, B will ask you for to issue an invoice with No VAT as an export but you do not have any proof the goods have left the UK and therefore may be held liable. -

We have some missing PVA certificates, there is the option on Government gateway to ask for Statements older than 6 months, I have selected this option twice but have not received a reply. Has anyone else actually received previous statements. thanks. -
RE: Sending Food Samples to Europe
If the food contains animal products it requires a health certificate and therefore hauliers will not take those goods without a health cert as they will be stopped at the border control point in the EU. -
RE: Import declarations by couriers (imports into GB from the EU)
The problem is that the FPO just do as they like to clear the goods, as fast as possible and have no regard for any origin issues. Added to this I find in most cases the first we know about such an import will be when it appears on the MSS. The FPO do not ask how we want to clear, someone in the factory orders a part from our UK agent then we find it has been posted from an address in the EU. The parts just arrive and by then it is too late to say please don't use importers knowledge! HMRC should be taking this up with the FPOs to get a uniform approach. -
RE: To PIVA or not to PIVA
Not sure why you think PIVA has a low take up, you just tell your broker or customs agent (includes DHL, UPS etc) you want to operate PIVA and as long as goods are from EU they do the rest. Option 3. register for CDS then you can download your PIVA statement from your government gateway account linked to your EORI. Who is going to be the importer into UK? You will need a UK EORI and UK VAT number to be the importer of records, if you are not established in the UK then that may not be possible.
