  • Other supporting schedules in PDF, where applicable

Frequently Asked Questions

Questions about the process

iXBRL conversion is the process of transforming your financial statements into Inline XBRL (iXBRL) format by applying the correct taxonomy tags. The converted file can then be submitted to HMRC as part of your Corporation Tax Return (CT600).

Any UK company filing Corporation Tax returns with HMRC must submit its statutory accounts and tax computations in iXBRL format. If your accounting software cannot generate compliant iXBRL files, a professional conversion service is required.

You can upload your financial statements in PDF, Microsoft Excel (XLS/XLSX), Microsoft Word (DOC/DOCX), or other commonly used accounting report formats. Our team converts them into HMRC-compliant iXBRL files.

Most iXBRL conversions are completed within 24 to 48 hours. Urgent same-day services may also be available for companies with approaching filing deadlines.

Once the conversion is complete, we securely deliver your validated iXBRL accounts and tax computation files by email or through our secure client portal, ready for submission.

Our primary service is iXBRL tagging and conversion. If required, we can also assist with preparing and filing your CT600 Corporation Tax Return using compatible HMRC filing software.

If your submission is rejected due to an iXBRL tagging issue within our scope of work, we review the rejection, make the necessary corrections, and provide an updated iXBRL file at no additional cost.
