Running a small business isn’t easy. You’ve got enough on your plate without having to worry about HMRC knocking on your door. But the reality is this: HMRC are carrying out more tax investigations than ever, and even the most careful business can get caught up in one.
Why are investigations on the rise?
-
HMRC collected £843.4 billion in tax last year, a record high.
-
They’ve hired thousands of extra compliance staff to dig deeper into tax returns.
-
They don’t just target “dodgy” businesses — investigations are often completely random.
What happens if you’re picked?
Even if you’ve done nothing wrong, an HMRC enquiry can:
-
Drag on for months, sometimes years.
-
Take up huge amounts of your time and energy.
-
Result in hefty fees for professional support to deal with it properly.
We’ve seen too many good, honest businesses stressed out and out of pocket simply because HMRC decided to take a closer look.
