HMRC has toughened up its approach to enquiry work and its inspectors have far greater powers than previously. They can enter your premises, check your records and access your computers, all with no right of appeal. The discovery of a simple unintentional error causing an underpayment of tax may lead to you incurring penalties.
We have considerable expertise in defending clients under enquiry by HMRC. If you are selected for a tax enquiry, we aim to settle it quickly and minimise the final tax liabilities. Even so, answering HMRC’s questions takes time and the enquiry could drag on for many months. It can cost thousands of pounds in defence of an enquiry or dispute, whatever the outcome.
Our tax enquiry insurance scheme minimises these risks and helps to protect your business by covering our professional fees for defending you in an HMRC enquiry.
