BC Easy Filer is an online system that will generate and file CT600 corporation tax submissions.

Our software has been in constant development since it was produced in 2016 as a simple but fully comprehensive way to submit your Corporation Tax return. .

The system is ideal for small users with only a single return to submit as there is a fixed cost for submitting a return. However, larger users and tax agents will appreciate the fact that the system can cover almost any type of company and situation that they may encounter and will be able to show value for money with our subscription service that allows unlimited submissions for an annual fee. Our users include Property Companies, Foreign Incorporated Companies, Charities as well as regular small business and tax agents.

If you have iXBRL accounts and tax comps from your accounting system or a third party supplier, you are able to use them with BC Easy Filer. If not you may wish to use our iXBRL tagging service where we will convert your accounts from spreadsheets or similar; more of which below.

All supplementary sheets are included for no additional cost and we have many customers submitting R&D tax credit claims through BC Easy Filer.

iXBRL is a format which combines the mark up of for example a webpage with embedded tags which tell a computer that can read them what each of the figures means in the context of a set of accounts. For example, this is the current year turnover. If you want to know more about iXBRL go here. (You don't) This link is for nerds only, see you there.

We do not convert your document directly. Instead we rekey the information into another system. So, do not be surprised if the formatting changes a little. However, you should ensure that the figures themselves match exactly. If you have multiple companies and want to consider making your own iXBRL have a look at VT Software which is what I use.

(*) - If you are unincorporated, a foreign company, or are a small charity you can use pdf accounts, but need iXBRL computations. If you are dormant you do not need to file accounts or computations.
