2021-22 Corporation (Limited Company) Tax Rates
Corporation Tax rates are generally a lot lower than traditional self-employed UK Income Tax rates. That being said, recent changes to dividend Tax has made this a little more problematic. It maybe worth that you incorporate as a limited company but a detailed review of your Income Tax circumstances should be carried out whilst forecasting future activities.
