Staying on top of key accounting dates is crucial for any business in the UK. Missing deadlines can result in penalties, interest, or unnecessary stress. In February 2025, several important tax and filing deadlines are fast approaching. From Corporation Tax payments to PAYE and CIS submissions, it\u2019s essential to be aware of these dates to ensure your business remains compliant with HMRC. In this article, we\u2019ll outline the key accounting deadlines in February 2025 and offer guidance on how to prepare for them.<\/p>\n
01\/02\/2025 \u2013 Corporation Tax payment: 30 April 2024 year ends<\/h2>\n
If your company\u2019s financial year ends on 30 April 2024, the deadline for paying your corporation tax is 01 February 2025. Corporation tax payments are due 9 months and 1 day after the end of your accounting period, so it\u2019s important to ensure that the payment is made on time to avoid penalties and interest. Failure to meet the deadline can result in significant late payment fees, so be sure to check your company\u2019s financial records and make the necessary arrangements well in advance to ensure timely payment. If you need help calculating your corporation tax or managing the payment process, our expert accountants at Accounting Wise can assist you in staying compliant.<\/p>\n
02\/02\/2025 \u2013 P46(car) electronic or paper: quarter to 5 January 2025<\/h2>\n
By 02 February 2025, employers must submit their P46(car) forms for the quarter ending 5 January 2025. This form is used to report any company car benefits provided to employees, ensuring that the correct tax is paid. If you provided company cars to employees during the quarter, you\u2019ll need to report details such as the car\u2019s CO2 emissions and the fuel used. The P46(car) form can be submitted either electronically through your payroll software or via paper submission to HMRC. It\u2019s essential to ensure that this form is filed on time to avoid any penalties or inaccuracies in employee tax reporting. If you need assistance in completing this form or understanding the regulations, our team at Accounting Wise is here to help.<\/p>\n
05\/02\/2025 \u2013 Employment intermediaries: report for the quarter to 5 January 2025<\/h2>\n
By 05 February 2025, employment intermediaries must submit their quarterly reports to HMRC for the period ending 5 January 2025. Employment intermediaries, including agencies that supply workers to clients, are required to report the details of workers they have placed, along with the tax and National Insurance contributions that apply. This is crucial for ensuring proper compliance with the IR35 rules and other tax obligations. Failure to submit the report on time could lead to penalties, so it\u2019s important to ensure all details are accurately reported. If you\u2019re an employment intermediary and need help with your reporting requirements, our experienced team at Accounting Wise can guide you through the process.<\/p>\n
05\/02\/2025 \u2013 Employment intermediaries: remove a report for the quarter to 5 October 2024<\/h2>\n
By 05 February 2025, employment intermediaries must remove any incorrect reports submitted for the quarter ending 5 October 2024. If an error was made in the original submission, such as incorrect worker details or tax contributions, the intermediary is required to submit a correction. This is crucial to ensure that all information provided to HMRC is accurate and in compliance with the regulations. Failure to correct errors or remove incorrect reports could result in penalties or further compliance issues. If you need assistance in amending reports or ensuring accuracy in your submissions, our team at Accounting Wise is ready to help.<\/p>\n
07\/02\/2025 \u2013 VAT return submission and payment (online): month-end or quarter 31 December 2024<\/h2>\n
By 07 February 2025, businesses with a VAT accounting period ending on 31 December 2024 must submit their VAT return and make any outstanding payments. This applies to both monthly and quarterly VAT filers. The VAT return must be filed online, detailing the sales, purchases, and VAT due or reclaimable during the period. Any payments for the VAT owed must also be made by this date to avoid penalties or interest charges. Ensure your records are up to date and the return is filed accurately and on time to remain compliant with HMRC. If you need assistance with your VAT return or have questions about your payment, Accounting Wise is here to support you.<\/p>\n
14\/02\/2025 \u2013 National Insurance: Form CA72A (deferral) for the employed<\/h2>\n
By 14 February 2025, employers must submit Form CA72A to HMRC if they are applying for a deferral of National Insurance contributions for employees. This form is used to request a deferral of the NIC payments for the employed, typically in cases where an employer is facing financial difficulty or has other qualifying circumstances. The form must be submitted within the specified timeframe to ensure that deferral is granted and avoid potential issues with non-payment. If you are unsure about the deferral process or need assistance in completing Form CA72A, our team at Accounting Wise is here to help you navigate the requirements efficiently.<\/p>\n
19\/02\/2025 \u2013 PAYE, NIC and CIS payment (postal): month-end 5 February 2025<\/h2>\n
By 19 February 2025, employers must ensure that PAYE, National Insurance Contributions (NIC), and Construction Industry Scheme (CIS) payments for the month-end 5 February 2025 are made via postal payment. If you\u2019re submitting payments by post, be aware of the time it takes for the postal system to process, as payments must be received by HMRC by the deadline to avoid late payment penalties. It\u2019s essential to check that all amounts are correct, including tax deductions and NIC contributions for employees, as well as CIS deductions if applicable. To avoid last-minute complications, ensure your payment is posted well in advance of the due date. If you need help with the calculations or ensuring timely payment, the experts at Accounting Wise are here to assist.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
