Fee Protection Services

Anyone can be selected for HMRC tax investigations –
a business, director or individual tax payer

A tax investigation could cost you money even if you’ve done nothing wrong.

HMRC Facts:

• £34 billion – the estimated tax gap between what HMRC should collect and what it does get
• £26 billion – the additional amount of annual tax income that HMRC are targeting to achieve through compliance activity
• £80 million – spent to develop strategic risk database that automatically generates tax enquiries

Tax investigations are time consuming, stressful, costly and can last for many months. Even if you are found to owe nothing you will still have to pay your professional representation fees.

For a modest annual fee you can safeguard yourself from the cost of the professional fees associated with an investigation.

How the service works:

The service covers up to the equivalent of £100,000 towards our professional fees resulting from an HMRC enquiry.
