Yep. Correct.
If you've any other income you need to account for that. That includes bank interest, rental income, etc etc.
And remember to get the paperwork right. You need to vote a dividend and record this in the minutes of the meeting and you need to issue a divi voucher for each divi you issue. In

So am i correct in saying that the "lower divi threshold" is 34600 + 5225=39825.
And if I pay myself NMW of the usual 5225 my "allowed" divi is 34600-10% =£31140?
So in theory I could pay myself £2500 approx/month in divi?
Thanks

Just1morethan is correct. It's a personal income tax, so the thresholds are against each person.

Per person. But it depends on other income and the £39k must include any salary the individual(s) are paid. Remember also that its the dividend + tax credit which needs to be taken into account NOT just the divi.

Dividend threshold
Hi,
Wonder if someone cold shed some light on this:
Is the "lower tax" dividend threshold ( approx 39K ) per shareholder or for the company as a whole?
e.g 2 directors/shareholders with 50/50 split =39K x 2 ...... or total is 39K?
