What Our Clients Say

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Construction Industry Scheme (CIS)?

The Construction Industry Scheme is an HMRC scheme that governs payments made by contractors to subcontractors for construction work. Contractors may be required to deduct tax from payments and submit regular returns to HMRC.

Do subcontractors need to register for CIS?

Subcontractors are not legally required to register, but those who are registered typically have deductions made at a lower rate than those who are not registered.

What happens if CIS returns are submitted late?

Late submissions can result in penalties from HMRC. Regular and accurate reporting helps reduce the risk of fines and compliance issues.

Can you help both contractors and subcontractors?

Yes. We provide CIS support for both contractors and subcontractors, including registration, verification, deductions, reporting, bookkeeping, and payroll services.

How does CIS affect VAT?

CIS deductions apply only to the labour element of qualifying construction work, while VAT is generally charged on the full invoice value. Managing both correctly is important for compliance.

Can CIS be managed alongside payroll?

Yes. Many construction businesses benefit from integrating payroll and CIS administration, particularly where both employees and subcontractors are engaged.

Do you support limited companies and sole traders?

Yes. We work with sole traders, partnerships, limited companies, and growing construction businesses throughout Wandsworth.
