Deluxe Package

A private company limited by shares in England and Wales must have at least one director, one shareholder, and may have a secretary.

You need at least one person to form this type of company. If there is only one director, and that director is a natural person in your company, that director can also act as the secretary.

A company must have at least one director who is a natural person. This requirement is met if the office of director is held by a natural person as a corporation sole or otherwise by virtue of an office.

You can register a sole director' company, if you are familiar with the secretaries duties and responsibilities, because all of them belongs to a sole director.

The directors and secretary of your company can also be shareholders.

The Companies Act imposes no restriction on the minimum age of company directors. However Companies House will actively discourage the appointment of anyone under the age of 16 from taking up a company directorship on the grounds that the individuals concerned may not fully understand the legal liabilities that go with the position and for the most part will not have the experience necessary to perform the duties of a company director.

Under the Companies Act 2006, there is no restriction on any or all of the members/shareholders being from an overseas country (i.e. outside the United Kingdom in terms of residency, domicile, citizenship, place of incorporation or all or any of those concepts).

There is no requirement for the officers of your company to be UK citizens or residents, nor for them to hold valid work permits.

Owning, or being an officer of a UK company does not, however, grant you any right to live or work in the UK if you are a foreign national.

Your company must have a registered office address within England or Wales; this is the official address of your company and will be on the public record as such.

Your company must hold its official company documents at its registered office address: its register of shareholders, and its constitutional documents.

So long as you maintain a registered office address in England or Wales, you can conduct your business from any place in the world: you do not have to run your business from your registered office address.

Consequences of a chargeable event: exit event Z

(1) This section applies where a chargeable event occurs in relation to C by virtue of section 66 and the exit event in question is exit event Z.

(2) C is to be treated for corporation tax purposes as receiving, immediately before the exit event, an amount of income from the relevant trade equal to the chargeable amount.

(3) Where TP is within the charge to corporation tax, an amount equal to the chargeable amount is to be treated for corporation tax purposes as a loss of TP's trade brought forward under section 393 of ICTA (relief of trading losses against future trading profits) to the accounting period in which TP acquires the disposed rights.

(4) Where TP is within the charge to income tax, an amount equal to the chargeable amount is to be treated for income tax purposes as a loss of TP's trade brought forward under section 385 of ICTA (carry-forward against subsequent profits) to the year of assessment in which TP acquires the disposed rights.

(5) But a loss brought forward under subsection (3) or (4) may only be set off against income which derives directly from the disposed rights.

(6) The "chargeable amount" is the difference between V1 and V2.

(7) Any income received in, or losses brought forward to, an accounting period by virtue of this section are in addition to any other income received in, or losses brought forward to, that period.

Find the amount of each payment of income which at that time the guaranteed income agreement is designed to secure is received by C but which at that time has not been brought into account for the relevant trade by C ("RI").

Step 2

For each payment find the day for payment which the agreement is designed to secure ("the payment day").

Step 3

For each payment find the number of days in the period ("P") which-

Step 4

Calculate the net present value of each payment ("NPVRI") by applying the following formula-

(1 + T)ⁱ

where-

i is the number of days in P divided by 365.

Step 5

Add together each amount of NPVRI determined under step 4.

(2) For the purposes of section 68, in relation to a relevant disposal, the value of the disposed rights immediately before the disposal is calculated as follows-

Step 2

For each payment find the day for payment which the agreement is designed to secure ("the payment day").

Step 3

For each payment find the number of days in the period ("P") which-

Step 4

Calculate the net present value of each payment ("NPVDI") by applying the following formula-

(1 + T)ⁱ

where-

i is the number of days in P divided by 365.

Step 5

Add together each amount of NPVDI determined under step 4.

(3) For the purposes of this section the "temporal discount rate" is 3.5% or such other rate as may be specified by regulations made by the Treasury.

(4) Regulations under subsection (3) may make such provision as is mentioned in subsection (3)(b) to (f) of section 178 of FA 1989 (power of Treasury to set rates of interest).

(a) one is the 75% subsidiary of the other, or

(b) both are 75% subsidiaries of a third company.

(2) For those purposes, the "principal company" of a group of companies means a company-

(a) which is not a 75% subsidiary of another company to whom group relief would be available under section 402 of ICTA if it were to make a group claim under that section in respect of any trading losses surrendered by C, and

(b) to whom group relief would be available under section 402 of ICTA if it were to make a group claim under that section in respect of any trading losses surrendered by C.

(3) For the purposes of sections 66 to 70 and this section-

(a) a company is to be treated as a 75% subsidiary of another company if it would be such a subsidiary of that company for the purposes of section 402 of ICTA (surrender of relief between members of group), and

(b) "company" has the same meaning as it has for the purposes of that section.

(4) This section is deemed to have come into force on 2nd December 2004.
