Tax enquiries

If HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) decide to investigate an individual or company’s tax return, it can be a highly stressful and uncertain time for anyone involved.

Each year, HMRC carries out a wide range of tax enquiries to ensure the right amount of tax has been paid. Its stringent process has recovered billions in additional tax revenue in recent years, achieved by targeting individuals using increasingly sophisticated software.

HMRC tax enquiries and investigations can be random or selective and have the aim of assessing whether a taxpayer has paid the right amount of tax.

With their in-depth knowledge of the investigative process, our specialist advisers can support you through any investigation, ensuring that you’re compliant, have all the facts and can secure the best possible outcome.
