Statutory Accounts are prepared for the public record and submitted to Companies House. The CT600 is the Corporation Tax return, submitted separately to HMRC, which is used to calculate the company's tax liability based on the profits shown in the accounts.

Frequently Asked Questions About Limited Companies
What is the difference between Statutory Accounts and the CT600?
How is a Director's salary different from a dividend?
A director's salary is an expense to the company and is subject to PAYE and National Insurance. A dividend is a share of company profits paid to shareholders (often the director) and is subject to different tax rates, sometimes being more tax-efficient for small company owners.
How long does a Limited Company have to file its accounts?
Statutory Accounts must generally be filed with Companies House within 9 months of the company's financial year-end.
