Company Officers
The Directors and Secretaries of a Limited Company is collectively called Officers and they are appointed by the members or shareholders to run and manage the day-to-day operations of the business.

Role of Director
A person minimum of 16 years age can be appointed as a Director of the Company. You can have just one Director in your Company, or you can have many. Usually the Shareholders are also the Directors of the Companies they own. It is very common for one person to set up a Limited Company by themselves and assume the positions of Sole Director and Sole Shareholder. The Directors are required to run a Company in accordance with the Companies Act and they are responsible for Filing the Business Taxes, Annual Accounts and Tax Returns every year. Directors of UK Companies can live anywhere in the World and they are not required to be UK Nationals, so you can run a British Company from any Country. You will still have to adhere to UK Taxation Rules and Company Filing requirements. The Company can remove the Director or can appoint a new Director at any time as per the Company Law. Usually the Shareholders retain the power to appoint and remove the Directors.

Role of Secretary
This is an optional role for Private Companies, so you do not have to Appoint a Secretary if you do not need. The purpose and role of a Company Secretary is to reduce the workload of the Company Directors by taking on some of their statutory duties and responsibilities. Any person can be the Secretary of a Private Company there are no formal qualifications required to hold this position.

Difference between a Director and a Shareholder
A Director is the person who manages the Company whereas the Shareholder owns the Company. Usually the Shareholders are also the Directors of the Companies they own.

What are the Shares and Shareholders
The unit of ownership in a Company is usually called Share. The owners of the shares are called Shareholders.
The distribution of Shares in a Company indicates the distribution of the Ownership. The Shareholders are entitled for Company’s Profit and they are also liable for the Loss as per their allotted Shares. There are two types of Shares ‘Ordinary Shares’ in which there is no fix profit, the Shareholder takes the Earning as per the Profit, the other type is "Preference Share" in which the Shareholder entitled to take Fix Profit.

What is Capital
Capital is the Amount or Asset which is invested by the Owners in the Business.

What is Share Capital
Share Capital is the Money Invested in a Company by the Shareholders to Purchase their Shares. This is the total Capital of a Limited Company divided into Shares. The minimum Capital is one Share and there is no maximum Share Capital. For example a Company issues 100 Shares against the price of £1 each then the total Capital of the Company is £100.

Filing Accounts and Financial Statements in the UK
All UK Registered Companies must file Financial Statements (Accounts) every year with Companies House even if the Company is Exempted from paying Tax in the UK. The Companies that has no Trading activity must file Dormant Accounts. You must submit your Accounts and Financial Statement at the end of the month in which the anniversary of the Company occurs. For example if your Company is incorporated on 14 March 2012 then you must submit your Accounts till 31 March 2013.

What is Dormant Company
A dormant Company is one that has been registered with Companies House but it is not carrying on any kind of business activity or receiving any form of income. Therefore it is exempted from the Corporation Tax. All new formed companies are active but they are Dormant till they start any trading or business. The Company can also be Dormant after a period of activity.

What is Corporation Tax
Corporation tax is a tax imposed on the profit of the Company with the rate of 20%. This is payable after deducting all the expenses of the Company. If your Company isn’t based in the UK but has an office or branch then it only pays Corporation Tax on profits from its UK activities.

What is Income Tax
Income Tax is a 20% Tax you pay on your personal income e.g Salary, Business Share etc. If you are non residents and the Director or Shareholder of a Company isn’t based in the UK but has an office or branch in the UK then you have to pay Income Tax only on your income generated inside the UK. Most importantly there is a Standard Personal Allowance of £11,000, which is the amount of income you don’t have to pay tax on. For example your yearly income is £10000 then you will file your Annual Return but you don’t have to pay Income Tax. For example your yearly income is £12000 then you will only pay Income Tax against £1000 through your Annual Return. If your Company is Dormant then you have to file your Annual Return but you don’t have to pay any Income Tax.

What is VAT
A value added tax (VAT) is a Consumption Tax added to a Sale Price of a Product. Your Company only has to pay the VAT if the yearly Turnover is more than £83000 from the business generated inside the UK. There is no VAT if you are Exporting from the UK to any part of the World.

What is Company SIC Code
SIC is short for Standard Industrial Classification. The SIC code identifies your Company’s principal business activity i.e. the nature of your business. You will need it when you are incorporating a Company. You can change SIC code or add more SIC codes at anytime.

Opening Bank Account in the UK
There is no legal obligation for a Limited Company to have its own Bank Account, but it is better to have one. There are no Legal Restrictions that prohibit non-UK residents from opening a Business Account. However, most banks will not accept applications from Overseas due to fraud concerns so the best solution is to visit the UK for this. Please note all Business Accounts are subject to the applicant’s status and the Bank’s Terms and Conditions. As per the market research HSBC and Barclays are the best Banks for non- UK residents.

Hiring the Staff in the UK
After the incorporation of your Company you can hire the staff in the UK. You have to hire people who are legally allowed to work inside the UK.
