Fifth of UK’s large firms investigated

According to a recent survey by YouGov for law firm Allen & Overy, nearly a fifth of Britain’s large corporations have been subject to a dawn raid by tax investigators in the past three years.

The findings further show that of all the companies researched in Europe, only companies based in Germany were more likely to receive a similar early-morning visit. Some 18 per cent of British corporations had been subject to a dawn raid since 2014, compared with 21 per cent in Germany.

If you are concerned about a tax enquiry into your affairs, worried that you may have possibly under-declared or, worse still, are you already under enquiry, our tax specialists, some of whom are former HMRC Inspector of Taxes, are well versed in dealing with all types of tax issues. We are also readily available to oversee HMRC disputes on your behalf, as well as to represent clients in appeal proceedings before the Tax Tribunal. In some situations we can also offer professional fee protection insurance, so the costs are covered in whole or in part.

For more information and to discuss your tax affairs in further detail, please contact your usual Beavis Morgan Partner.
