Company Tax Return (CT600) software and what it costs

These are 11 products that can file a Company Tax Return (CT600) with HMRC and appear on Companies House’s list of accounts filing software. Each one publishes its prices on its own website, and we read every price there ourselves, so you will see the date of that check beside it. They are listed alphabetically, because the right one depends on your company rather than on any order we could give them.

Below them, in a group of their own, are five products that file the Company Tax Return with HMRC but are not on Companies House’s list. The note on products that file the Company Tax Return only explains why they are here and what that means for your accounts.

How we chose these products

We started from GOV.UK’s two lists and kept the products that appear on both, that HMRC marks as suitable for companies filing their own return, and whose providers publish a price. Some products on the lists are sold only to accountants, or ask you to get in touch for a price, so they are not here. Where a provider’s own page does not say something, we write “not stated” rather than guess.

The accounts and computations you send with a Company Tax Return have a format of their own, and HMRC says that “The computations and accounts must be in Inline eXtensible Business Reporting Language (iXBRL).” HMRC’s list answers “Yes” under “Submit iXBRL documents” for every product here.

Prices are charged in different ways. Some providers charge for each return you file, some charge a yearly fee for each company, and some sell a monthly subscription that covers bookkeeping as well, so it is worth comparing what a whole year would cost your company rather than the headline figure alone. We have worked that out for one company and put the same products in order of price, if that is the comparison you would like to start with.

Products that file the Company Tax Return only

These five products are on HMRC’s list of Corporation Tax software and file the Company Tax Return (CT600), but Companies House’s list of software for accounts did not include them when we read it on 25 October 2026. We review them in the same way as the products above. HMRC marks each one as suitable for companies filing their own return, and each publishes a price for a single company on its own site, which we read there ourselves.

They have a place here because, for now, your accounts can reach Companies House another way. The GOV.UK guidance on HMRC’s closed service says that “From 1 April 2026, companies can file their annual accounts with Companies House using third party software, our web services or paper filing. However, you will need to use software to file your Company Tax Return with HMRC.”

That changes on 1 April 2028, and GOV.UK says that “From 1 April 2028, all companies must file their accounts using commercial software. This applies to companies who file accounts themselves, and companies who use a professional (such as an accountant) to file their accounts.” So if you choose one of these for your return, it helps to know how your accounts will be filed from then on. Two of them say on their own sites that they file accounts with Companies House as well, as the table shows, so check that with the provider before you rely on it.

Before you choose

HMRC says that it accepts returns filed using any of the products on its list, and Companies House says that it does not endorse or recommend particular products. Being on either list tells you the software can file, not that it suits your company, so it helps to check that a product handles your type of accounts and both parts of the job before you pay. The company filing section explains what has to be filed, and when.

The last column shows what Companies House’s own software finder lists each product for, which we read on 12 October 2026. The other columns show what the provider’s own pages say.

HMRC’s own list names many more suppliers than the ones here, and HMRC’s Corporation Tax software list sets out every one of them, section by section, with HMRC’s own answers.

If you would like to see which software companies already use, our monthly counts of the software used to file company accounts show how many accounts each product named in Companies House’s files produced.
