Tax Investigation Protection Policy for UK Companies

Why You Need a Tax Investigation Protection Policy

Even the most compliant UK limited companies can face a surprise HMRC inquiry. Our tax investigation protection policy provides peace of mind by covering professional fees incurred during such investigations. Whether it’s a routine check or a complex enquiry, these situations can become time-consuming and costly without adequate protection.

What Is Covered Under Our Policy?

Our non-regulated fee protection service is designed to support owner-managed businesses and fast-growth start-ups throughout the UK. Key features include:

Full Representation from Our Experts

You’ll receive representation from a qualified accountant who understands your business. We’ll liaise directly with HMRC, manage documentation and respond on your behalf, minimising stress and disruption.

Coverage for a Wide Range of HMRC Investigations

Whether it's PAYE, VAT, corporation tax or income tax - you’ll be covered for a variety of HMRC enquiries, including:

  • Full enquiries
  • Aspect enquiries
  • Business record checks
  • Employer compliance visits

No Surprise Bills

Professional representation in HMRC investigations can easily run into thousands of pounds. This policy ensures you're protected from these unexpected costs.

Affordable Protection for Your Business

We offer two simple pricing options:

  • £150 per year (billed annually)
  • £15 per month (added to your current plan)

This means you can spread the cost over the year or pay upfront - whatever works best for your cash flow.

Who Should Consider This Policy?

This tax investigation protection policy is ideal for:

  • Limited companies with active trading
  • Owner-managed businesses
  • Start-ups with rapid growth plans
  • Any company seeking proactive defence against HMRC scrutiny

If your accounts, payroll or tax filings are handled professionally, this is the final step in ensuring you’re completely protected from the financial impact of an investigation.

How to Add the Policy to Your Plan

Getting covered is easy. Contact your Agile Accountants adviser to:

  1. Confirm the monthly or annual payment method
  2. Add the policy to your service plan
  3. Receive confirmation and start your protection

We’ll take care of the rest, ensuring your policy is active from the agreed start date.

    I was recommended by another business to use Agile Accountants, I have to say they are fantastic, so helpful and professional.
    Their response times and attention to detail set them apart from other accountants.
    It’s comforting to know my company is supported by professional accountants.

    Having worked closely with numerous external accountants during my career, I find the Agile team to be a breath of fresh air. Foremost, I find James and Adam very responsive and both are willing to assist when one or the other is unavailable. Their advice and guidance is always sound and they often go above and beyond to assist where they can. I would have no hesitation in recommending Agile to anyone looking for an accounting partner that does not just competently handle compliance, but also add real strategic value to their business.
