Although the qualifying company regime was superseded by the look-through company regime on 1 April 2011, qualifying companies existing at that date continue to operate under the regime.
To remain a qualifying company, it is necessary to satisfy a number of requirements. Special rules apply to dividends from qualifying companies that determine the extent to which the dividend is taxable or tax-exempt.
This webinar will examine
• the requirements a company must continue to satisfy to remain a qualifying company
• the special rules that apply to dividends paid by qualifying companies
• income tax issues that arise when a qualifying company is wound up
Upon satisfactory completion of this activity you will:
• Be aware of the shareholding and election requirements that need to be satisfied to remain a qualifying company
• Understand when distributions from qualifying companies are tax exempt
• Be aware of potential pitfalls when winding up a qualifying company
