Current Company Tax Return Forms

Which form?

You can view, and print copies of, the CT600 Version 2 company tax return forms currently in use by using the link in the text below in How do I get the forms?

What changes are planned and does this affect the form I can use?

We have now completed the changes for 2007. Any further changes necessary will be planned after the Chancellor’s next Budget.

For 2007 there are two new boxes on the 8-page company tax return form CT600 and one on the 4-page CT600 (Short).
The first new box on page 1 of both forms is there so that a company which is a member of a group other than a small group can identify itself. See ‘Time limit for taking up enquiries’ below. The other new box is on page 3 of the 8-page form so that a company with ring fence profits can show the ring fence profits included in its figure of total profits. See ‘Changes of rates and fractions’ below.

Updated advice in the CT600 Guide covers these new boxes. There are also revised notes for capital allowances, Research & Development including vaccines research, the time limit for HMRC to take up an enquiry, and we have added financial year (FY) 2007 to the table of rates and fractions. There are no changes to other forms in the CT600 series at present and all the CT600 Supplementary Pages published in 2006 remain valid for use.
