UK Tax Reform 2025: What Business Owners Must Know

The UK tax landscape is changing fast. With new rates, tighter reliefs, and increased scrutiny, business owners must stay proactive to avoid unnecessary liabilities.

What’s Changing?

  Corporation tax is up to 25% for higher profits

  Dividend tax-free thresholds reduced again

  R&D claims under greater scrutiny

  Ongoing IR35 and VAT audits

Compliance Pressure Is Rising

HMRC is focusing on errors and abuse, especially around R&D and contractor rules. Mistakes are costly—even if unintentional.

How to Prepare

  Reassess your business structure

  Review director remuneration strategies

  Check R&D claim documentation

  Ensure IR35 compliance if using contractors

Strategic Planning Is Key

Tax should be managed year-round, not just at year-end. We work with clients to ensure compliance and optimise tax outcomes across the year.
