Hi, I have taken £10,500 as dividends in 2013/14 before the company annual tax returns, Due to my visa rejection, I closed the company without submitting company tax returns for that financial year. Although I have declared those dividends into my personal self-assessment but it's still not declared by the company. Legally I can not take dividends unless the company has declared it. Can those dividends be considered as capital distributions or whats the best way to make those dividends legal?

Slightly concerning that you are only thinking about this now, considering it's over three years ago. Overall not enough info to provide thoughts on this to be honest eg how you 'closed' the company and what that looked like on paper. I suggest you engage an accountant to look at it.
