    AT A GLANCE

    Introduced by the UK government, the IR35 legislation is designed to differentiate between genuine contractors and those working as “disguised” employees for tax avoidance purposes. It’s a tricky area, often leaving professionals scratching their heads and wondering if they’re affected.

    How Tax Natives works.

    Tax Natives is an international tax network that connects Explorers (taxpayer clients) with Natives (qualified and regulated tax advisers) from one jurisdiction to another.

    Ask a question to get started

    STEP ONE

    Select the 'Ask a question button located on the top of each page and follow through the process to compose your question

    STEP TWO

    Once your question is confirmed and your account is set up, navigate to your user dashboard to view the message exchange between you and your Tax Native.

    STEP THREE

    Each Tax Native has to accept a question from an Explorer before a conversation can begin. Once the Tax Native has accepted your question, a quote will be submitted for approval through the messaging portal.

    What do I need to know about IR35?

    IR35 affects contractors who operate through their limited company, a Personal Service Company (PSC). If your working arrangement looks more like employment rather than genuine self-employment, you might fall within the scope of IR35. This means paying income tax and National Insurance Contributions (NICs) similarly to an employee rather than enjoying the tax efficiencies of a contractor.

    For example, A web developer operating through their own limited company, contracting for a client with terms resembling employment, faces implications under IR35 rules. This includes the client dictating work hours and supervising tasks, the inability to substitute the contractor with someone else, and more.

    Such a setup is considered disguised employment, meaning the contractor’s income from this arrangement is taxed like an employee’s without the benefits or tax efficiencies of self-employment.

    Therefore, this reduces the contractor’s take-home pay as they must pay income tax and National Insurance Contributions (NICs) as if they were employees, despite contracting through a personal service company.
