About R&D Tax entitlement
R&D Explained
What qualifies as R&D Expenditure and how can your business benefit?
Who is eligible?
Companies of all sizes and from most industry sectors are eligible and qualify for R&D Tax Relief.
What can be claimed?
You might be surprised as to what Business-as-Usual activities qualify as Research & Development Expenditure.
R&D EXPLAINED
The UK Government introduced R&D Tax Credits to encourage Research and Development in 2000.
This has proved highly popular, with 86,000 UK companies claiming back almost £7.4bn in tax relief in 2020.
R&D Tax Credits are a highly specialised part of the UK tax code that could bring your company tens of thousands of pounds in tax relief entitlement.
WHO IS ELIGIBLE?
The size of your business will determine which R&D Tax Credits you are eligible for and, ultimately, what proportion of your spending you can claim back. Still, every company registered in the UK is eligible.
Whether profitable or operating at a loss, both SMEs and large companies can claim R&D Tax Credits. Your business needs to be a UK limited trading company with a set of financial accounts and qualifying R&D spending.
Eligible R&D activities:
- Overcoming technical challenges
- Creating and testing prototypes
- Streamlining processes
- Developing bespoke software
- Trialling new or substituting materials
- Trial and error
- Industry firsts
WHAT CAN BE CLAIMED?
R&D Tax Credits are calculated based on enhancing expenditure for research and development work, as the UK Government aims to reward SME’s and large companies for innovation and problem solving.
We can claim up to 33% of qualifying expenditure, in the following categories:
- Staffing costs (salaries, bonuses / allowances – also includes e’eer NI & Pension)
- Capital expenditure (facilities & test environments)
- Payments to subcontractors (3rd party contractors)
- Software & consumables (Materials, software licences and water, light & heat)
- Payments to external workers (3rd party contractors, under supervision, direction or control of your company).
We can also backdate your claim up to two financial years.
