For limited companies and partnerships

Coming soon

£arnd business is built for limited companies and partnerships. Leave your details and you'll be first to know when it launches.

Many ltd company directors also use £arnd for personal self-employment income.

Screen 4 — HMRC registered?
9:41●●●

Are you registered with HMRC?

As self-employed or for Self Assessment

Yes — I have a UTR number
Already told HMRC you're self-employed
No — not registered yet
You need to contact HMRC first
Making Tax Digital means you must report quarterly to HMRC. £arnd handles this automatically.
Screen 4b — No UTR branch: not registered

Let's get you registered

One quick step before £arnd can file for you

1
Register as self-employed
Takes about 10 minutes online via GOV.UK
GOV.UK
Register as a sole trader
www.gov.uk — official HMRC registration
2
HMRC will post your UTR number
Arrives within 10 days of registering
3
Come back and add it here
Everything in £arnd is ready and waiting
You can still explore £arnd while you wait for your UTR — you just won't be able to file with HMRC until it arrives.

We'll remind you when to come back

Screen 5 — Tax details & CIS
9:41●●●

Your tax details

Nearly there — last step

Developer note: the VAT number field below appears automatically when "Yes" is selected above. Shown expanded here for reference.

9 digits, starting with GB — found on your VAT certificate from HMRC.

£arnd will automatically add VAT to your invoices and track your returns.
Construction Industry Scheme
CIS — mainly for trades and construction

Are you paid under CIS? If so, 20% is deducted before you receive payment — £arnd records this automatically.

Yes — I'm registered for CIS
20% deducted at source
No — not on CIS
I receive my full invoiced amount
Not sure
We can work this out together later
CIS deductions count as tax already paid — £arnd offsets these against your Self Assessment bill automatically.
