Umbrella Companies

With the introduction of the Managed Service Companies legislation effectively striking out Composites and Single Person Companies with providers, many providers shifted into Umbrella company and Self-employed set ups. 

The 2008 Budget saw the announcement of the Government’s “concerns” with the growing number of Umbrella companies who do not operate correctly, which has seen HMRC significantly up the anti on umbrella companies compliance.

Accountax have successfully defended HMRC attacks on Umbrella companies. The areas defended include CT Enquiries, Employer Compliance failings, Expenses Enquiries, Agency legislation challenges etc and have a dedicated team who specialise in Umbrella company set ups and the Managed Service Company legislation.

We now also offer payroll software specifically developed for Umbrella companies...
