Currently, large companies, that is companies with taxable profits of more than £1.5 million in an accounting period, are required to pay CT by instalments starting during the period to which the liability relates.

For accounting periods that begin on or after 1 April 2019, very large companies, that is companies with taxable profits of more than £20 million, will be required to pay CT instalments earlier than large companies.

The legislation has been published in Statutory Instrument 2017 No. 1072 - The Corporation Tax (Instalment Payments) (Amendment) Regulations 2017.
