However, what they fail to take into consideration is the corporate tax that they need to pay once they have opened up their business. If you are planning to start your business in the United Kingdom you have to pay corporation tax which is a corporate tax levied on the profits that companies make. The corporation tax is also levied on foreign companies with a UK branch and associations that trade in the European Union.

Starting a limited company is a great option, if you want to start your own business. One of the best benefits is that your company is responsible for everything it does and its finances are separate from your personal finances. However, while there are several benefits that limited company can enjoy in the UK, there are certain responsibilities as well and you need to be aware of that even before you start your own limited company.
