How vehicle repair garages file

Garages hold parts stock and often own diagnostic equipment and ramps, which qualify for capital allowances.

Every company on these pages is an active private limited company that files small or micro-entity accounts. Each one has to deliver accounts to Companies House within 9 months of its year end, pay corporation tax 9 months and 1 day after it, and file a CT600 with HMRC within 12 months.
