Our Corporate Tax Consulting Services
Our Corporate Tax Consulting Services focus on supporting UK corporations, partnerships, and limited companies with clear guidance and HMRC-ready compliance. In our services, we provide practical corporate tax solutions that help maintain accuracy and meet your operational tax requirements.
Corporate Tax Planning and Advisory
Our consultants begin by evaluating your company’s financial data, expenditure patterns, and group structure. Using these insights, we develop planning frameworks that align with corporate objectives while maintaining compliance.
This process includes identifying allowable deductions, applying relevant reliefs, and structuring transactions for optimal tax performance. Clients typically observe reduced tax liabilities of up to 15 percent within the first year of engagement.
Corporation Tax Filing and Compliance
Accurate filing is critical for every business registered in the UK. We prepare and submit corporation tax returns under HMRC requirements, managing everything from calculation to submission.
Our consultants reconcile accounting data, verify expense allocation, and review prior filings to identify potential corrections. This approach protects your organisation from late-filing penalties and unnecessary overpayments.
HMRC Enquiry and Investigation Support
When HMRC initiates an enquiry, professional guidance can make a significant difference. Our consultants coordinate all correspondence, compile documentation, and present your case with clarity and precision.
We help reduce exposure to penalties by identifying the core issues and addressing them quickly. Around 80 percent of the cases we handle are settled without the need for extended review or tribunal action.
Capital Allowances and Investment Reliefs
Capital expenditure represents one of the largest tax opportunities for corporations. We assess eligibility for plant, machinery, property, and integral-feature allowances.
Our consultants prepare detailed claim reports supported by accurate valuations and schedules that comply with HMRC’s requirements. This process often reveals unclaimed allowances from prior years, improving cash flow and balance-sheet performance.
R&D Tax Relief and Innovation Funding
Research and development relief remains one of the most valuable incentives available to UK companies. Our consultants identify qualifying projects, calculate eligible costs, and prepare submission documents that meet HMRC criteria.
We collaborate with technical teams to verify activities, staffing, and expenditure. Depending on project scale, businesses can recover between £20,000 and £300,000 through valid claims.
International and Cross-Border Tax Structuring
For organizations operating across borders, tax exposure increases significantly. Our expert consultants provide guidance on double-taxation relief, transfer-pricing documentation, and treaty applications.
We design frameworks that align with both UK and foreign tax obligations, allowing you to manage global operations efficiently while remaining compliant.
Companies with subsidiaries or trading arms outside the UK rely on our consultancy to maintain accuracy in inter-company transactions and reporting.
Mergers, Acquisitions, and Corporate Restructuring
Every transaction-whether a merger, acquisition, or divestment-carries specific tax consequences. Our expert consultants evaluate deal structures, asset transfers, and shareholder arrangements to mitigate unnecessary exposure.
We prepare due diligence reports, assess relief eligibility, and work alongside your legal and accounting teams to maintain financial integrity throughout the process.
This service provides corporate leaders with confidence that transactions meet both commercial and regulatory expectations.
Payroll and Employment Tax Advisory
Employment-related tax obligations extend far beyond PAYE. Our expert consultants review remuneration structures, benefits-in-kind, and director payments to maintain accuracy within HMRC’s Real Time Information framework.
We also provide guidance on off-payroll working (IR35) and employee classification to prevent costly re-assessments. Businesses that implement proper payroll oversight typically reduce administrative costs by 10 percent or more each year.
