Our company ceased trading last May. We have now wound up our affairs and distributed our assets. We now need to submit final accounts and tax return to HMRC and apply for voluntary strike off. Should we submit accounts to HMRC before or after submitting form DS01? Our final accounts will be for the year 2023/4 and may not be completed and submitted before the end of the tax year. The person who does our accounts believes that if we don’t submit a DS01 before the end of the tax year we will be required to complete further accounts for the year 24/25, even though we will not be trading or have any financial transactions in that year. Please can you clarify this.
