Tax Enquiries & Investigations

Every area covered…

Umbrella companies are, and forever will be a target on HMRC’s radar.  What makes things worse is that HMRC have a variety of areas on which to base their attack.  Whether it is the MSC legislation, the intermediaries legislation, the expenses legislation, employment status or the minimum wage (among others) umbrella companies must ensure that they are compliant and prepared for HMRC’s attack.

The best way for umbrella companies to prepare is to have advisers that have the legal and commercial expertise to advise and protect you.  Chartergates are the consultants that can do this.  We are experienced and have a successful track record in advising, protecting and defending umbrella companies against HMRC enquiries.

Commercial and robust…

We believe the best way to defend umbrella companies is to marry their commercial aims with the legislation.  We take a robust and no-nonsense approach to HMRC ensuring they are on the back foot and that your interests are protected.  We believe that we can best protect your commercial interests by taking a proactive approach to our advice.  Our Chartergate Affiliate members benefit from ongoing advice and updates and have the peace of mind of knowing they are well prepared for HMRC.

No hidden fees…

All our fees are fixed and we can even put a retainer in place which means you benefit from ongoing advice and consultancy as well as having to pay no extra fees in the event of an enquiry.  We see this as a commercially attractive solution for our clients.  We aim to ensure your compliance in as commercial a manner as possible.
