That is it. You might be able to reclaim your mobile phone bill if the contract is in your company's name.
Fact is, your company provides you. It doesn't have particularly high costs, which is why your corporation tax bill will be 'high'.
If you're a contractor, use a contractor specialist accountant - Gorilla is who I use. And don't spend all the money you get paid by your client, it isn't all yours to spend. Rule of thumb: allow about 1/3 of what you get in from the client to pay VAT and corp tax. And pay your self assessment tax out of your money, not your company's money.Last edited by Contractor UK; 30 December 2020, 16:00.Taking a break from contractingComment

Max out your pension payments. That will reduce your corp tax.
