Companies carrying out projects that seek to achieve an advance in science or technology, and that involve resolving genuine scientific or technological uncertainty, may be able to claim enhanced tax relief or a cash credit for the associated costs. This applies across a far wider range of industries than many businesses assume.

Identifying qualifying activity and costs correctly is essential, as HMRC scrutinises claims closely and the rules have tightened in recent years. A well-documented claim, prepared with proper advice, can provide valuable support for innovation, while a poorly evidenced one can create real risk. We can help assess and prepare a robust claim.
