Tax Services for Umbrella Companies
Tax compliance for umbrella companies is non-negotiable. The labour supply sector is firmly fixed on HMRC’s radar and remains a target for specific legislation. What’s more, non-compliant umbrella companies are likely to be commercially unviable, as their clients increasingly move towards suppliers that are and can demonstrate their compliance.
Whether it is Section 44 ITEPA, IR35, the Managed Service Company rules, expenses legislation or the National Minimum Wage, it is crucial that umbrella companies receive accurate and industry specific advice to enable them to be compliant and commercially viable. This is where Chartergates come in. For over a decade we have specialised in advising and protecting the labour supply sector on the tax compliance risks they face.
What’s more our track record is second to none and defined by our proactive, detailed and commercial approach.
Proactive means that we work in partnership with our clients ensuring they are up to speed with any compliance changes but also that their processes, procedures and documentation are compliant, ensuring any HMRC challenges are navigated successfully.
Detailed means when an umbrella company faces a challenge from HMRC, our consultants and advocates meticulously scrutinise the detail of the legislation and case law to ensure that HMRC are kept in check and that the fine details of the legislation are understood.
Commercial means that when we provide advice and representation we do not require our clients to work in a compliance vacuum. No client should be forced to change their commercial targets to satisfy an adviser. At Chartergates we are skilled enough to be able to advise our clients on tax compliance in a manner that allows them to preserve their commercial focus.
