R & D Tax Credits
Our R&D tax relief service helps innovative businesses identify qualifying research and development activities and understand the tax relief that may be available.
Research and development tax relief is designed to encourage innovation by helping eligible UK businesses manage some of the costs associated with developing new products, processes, services or improving existing ones. Activities involving technical uncertainty and systematic problem-solving may qualify, depending on the relevant criteria.
Many businesses overlook potentially qualifying work because they assume research and development only applies to laboratories or scientific discoveries. In practice, eligible projects can also arise in areas such as software development, engineering, manufacturing and technological improvement.
How We Can Help
Identifying Qualifying Activities
We review your projects and development work to help establish whether the activities meet the relevant research and development criteria.
Reviewing Eligible Costs
We help identify potentially qualifying expenditure and assess the costs that may be included in a claim under the applicable rules.
Preparing Your Claim
We help compile the supporting information, calculations and documentation needed to prepare a clear and compliant submission to HMRC.
Corporation Tax Integration
We coordinate the claim with your Corporation Tax compliance work where appropriate, helping make the process more efficient and consistent.
A Clear and Compliant Process
R&D tax relief rules and claim requirements can be detailed, and eligibility depends on the nature of the work, the costs incurred and the scheme applicable to your company. We help you understand the requirements, gather the relevant evidence and prepare your claim in line with current HMRC guidance.
Depending on your company's circumstances and the relief available, a successful claim may reduce a tax liability or provide another form of tax benefit. The outcome is subject to eligibility, the applicable scheme and HMRC's assessment.
