Tax investigations

Reach a swift resolution

Unfortunately, even for those businesses with perfect tax compliance practices, HMRC still reserves the right to investigate the tax affairs of any individual or business completely at random. It means no one is safe from an investigation. But no matter how perfect your accounts and tax returns are, you could end up dishing out a lot of money just to defend yourself. And the longer an investigation lasts, the more costly it will get for you.

With Venthams, all our knowledge of the tax code and experience with HMRC by your side, your investigation will run smoothly to reach a swift resolution. We’ll also keep down any penalty you might receive by being as productive as possible with HMRC – the tax authority awards defenders who help them by supplying documents with a lower fee.

The best defence against attracting the attention of HMRC is good accounting and bookkeeping, but remember, its investigations can also still be random. At the very least, it’s best to have a tax investigation team on standby for you, just in case the tax authorities come knocking.
