This particular guide, which is 30 pages long, will make it easy to ensure your IR35 compliance and has the following sections:

IR35 History

IR35 Rules
We explain the IR35 rules and the schedule of the legislation where they appear and then we provide a step by step guide on how the extra tax and/or NIC due would be calculated on a case caught by the rules.

Beating IR35
We give you our 5 main tips for protecting yourself from IR35. This is the part every contractor should know. Later on in the guide you'll find out more about why these 5 tips are so important.

Limited Companies

IR35 Investigations
This is where you start to find out why our 5 main tips are so important. In this section we explain how IR35 investigations often begin and what the tax inspector will look at.

IR35 Contracts
