Frequently asked questions
What are the key tax benefits of EIS and SEIS for investors in the UK?
EIS and SEIS offer significant tax reliefs, including income tax relief at 30% and 50% respectively, capital gains tax deferral, and exemption from inheritance tax after two years. These incentives encourage investment in early-stage companies.
How do I find an accountant accredited by ACCA or ICAEW for EIS work?
Use the AccountingFirms directory to filter accountants by accreditation and specialism. Look for ACCA or ICAEW members who list EIS and SEIS as a service area. Check their profile for verified status and client reviews.
What documentation is needed to apply for HMRC advance assurance for EIS?
Typically you need a detailed business plan, financial projections, share structure details, and information about the qualifying trade. An experienced accountant will prepare the submission to HMRC and handle any queries.
Can a company use EIS and SEIS simultaneously for different funding rounds?
Yes, a company can raise funds under EIS and SEIS in separate rounds, but careful planning is needed to meet the respective limits and qualifying conditions. Accountants help structure the timing and amounts to avoid disqualification.
What are the eligibility criteria for a company to qualify for SEIS?
The company must be unquoted, have fewer than 25 employees, gross assets under £200,000, and be less than two years old. The trade must qualify—certain activities like property development or financial services are excluded.
How does an accountant ensure compliance with UK tax rules when filing an EIS claim?
Accountants verify that the company and investors meet all HMRC conditions, prepare accurate compliance statements, and submit form EIS1 or SEIS1 within required deadlines. They also advise on annual returns and share certificates to maintain relief status.
