Your Corporation Tax Number is often noted as your UTR (Unique Taxpayer Reference) number. It is a unique code that identifies your business for the purpose of paying Corporation Tax.
Your UTR will be 10 digits and look like: 12345 67890. If you've recently joined Mighty and had a previous accountant for your company, we'll contact them to request this for you.
HMRC will send this by post within 10 days of incorporating your company and it will be on all corporation tax letters sent to you subsequently by HMRC.
For example, your UTR will be shown on:
Your UTR number can also be found by logging in to your Government Gateway account, with your account summary section.
Note: Your company UTR code must not be confused with your personal UTR code (which is used for self assessment and takes a similar 10 digit format).

You will automatically be issued a UTR number when you create your limited company. Companies House will notify HMRC automatically, and HMRC will send you a letter that includes your company's UTR within days of formation.
