There are plenty of reasons why you may chose to close down your own limited company in preference to trading through a PAYE Umbrella company.

You've had enough of:

• the paperwork that comes with being a director
• the endless pain excel spreadsheets
• dealing with government authorities like Companies House and HMRC
• raising invoices for your agency
• keeping your business bank account balanced
• filling in all the statutory documents every month
• compliance

"Is it all really worth it?" This is the big one! You might be earning a few pounds more each week but is that enough to make the extra drain on your time  worthwhile? Only you can answer that but the chances are you are not, so consider relieving some of your stress, today.

You just want to get on with your real job!

Forget the problems of running a limited company. You won't have to be involved with

• Spreadsheets
• VAT
• PAYE
• Returns
• Company accounts
• Tax
• HMRC
• Companies House
• A great deal more expense

Using an Umbrella company allows you to focus on your contract, while they do your administration & paperwork.

Just tell your accountant that you no longer wish to run your own limited company, and ask them to take the necessary steps to close it down. That's all you need to do - simple. This is not a difficult task, and the cost is just a few pounds, normally, from a reputable company.
