Let’s keep it simple. IR35 insurance is a tax insurance policy which provides you with the support of a team of tax experts (including former tax inspectors) to help you tackle an IR35 enquiry (and many other HMRC enquiries). If that wasn’t enough to save you; with the right cover in place, we would then pay your IR35 liabilities, interest, and penalties for you.
IR35 enquiries are rarely straightforward and even seemingly clear-cut cases, such as that of Jensal Software Ltd, can go all the way to a tax tribunal. Tax and IR35 insurance can not only give you the financial security of being able to pay your tax liabilities, but also the expert representation to fight your case and help you through the difficult process.
Qdos provide two levels of cover: Tax Enquiry Insurance (suitable for sole traders as well as limited company contractors) and Tax Liability Cover (suitable for limited company contractors only). Compare cover below.
