Tax Investigation

If you are unfortunate enough to be the subject of any tax investigation by HM Revenue & Customs (for direct or indirect taxes, personal and corporate tax or VAT), tax investigations can be intimidating, and with HMRC growing increasingly more powerful, an investigation into your affairs is more likely than ever – even if you’ve paid all your tax. Although we work hard to keep your tax affairs in order, compliance doesn’t necessarily keep you safe, hence it can be a stressful and worrying experience.

If you are unlucky enough to have your business investigated by HMRC then our expert team are on-hand to guide you through the process. Our knowledge and experience of dealing with HMRC at all levels will ensure you achieve the best possible outcome. Even if your records are in order and you have paid all your tax, the cost of preparing and presenting your case for investigation can be an unwanted and expensive overhead.

The threat of a VAT assessment or penalty hanging over your business can be very disruptive, putting you and your employees under considerable pressure at a time when you can least afford it. HMRC staff can now review cases on a ‘sample basis’ so investigations are becoming more frequent. Hisbah VAT services for businesses are designed to relieve the pressure on you and your business, so you can concentrate on maintaining the momentum of running your business. We’ll look after all aspects of the VAT assessments and negotiate directly with HMRC on your behalf.

Insurance available. Please contact us for a quote if you would like this cover. The insurance offered by Hisbah Professional Fee Protection Services, is placed with market leaders Professional Fee Protection Limited, who provide cover up to £75,000 for accountant’s fees incurred during an investigation. The premiums are not excessive and provide exceptional value for money.
