    Description of Using a Company to Save Tax

    By running your business through a limited company you stand to save tens of thousands of pounds in tax and national insurance every year.

    Why? To start with UK corporation tax rates are much lower than income tax rates. Secondly, company owners can pay themselves dividends, which are taxed much less heavily than other forms of income. Finally, setting up a company with your spouse allows you to split your income which almost always results in a lower tax bill.

    This tax guide tells you everything you need to know about the tax benefits of using a company. It is essential reading for:

    - Sole traders and partnerships thinking about setting up a company.
    - Anyone running a company and wanting to pay less corporation tax, income tax and national insurance.
    - Anyone about to start a business.
    - Accountants who wish to advise their clients on the tax benefits of using a company.

    Like all Taxcafe guides Using a Company to Save Tax is completely up to date, written in plain English and contains numerous examples and illustrations. Subjects covered include:

    - Plain-English guide to corporation tax.
    - Summary of company tax advantages and disadvantages.
    - Detailed examples of overall tax savings enjoyed by company owners.
    - How company owners can avoid paying any national insurance and income tax.
    - How dividends can be used to cut your tax bill by thousands of pounds.
    - How to split income with your spouse to achieve further tax savings.
    - How to incorporate an existing business.
    - The tax benefits and drawbacks of using an offshore company.
