What is IR35?
As of April 2021, medium and large sized private sector businesses will be responsible for determining the employment status of a contractor’s assignment, deducting any employment taxes due and paying any tax owed to HMRC.
Inside or Outside IR35?
Inside IR35
To be inside IR35 means the worker is to be considered, for tax purposes, an employee of the end client and therefore subject to PAYE.
Outside IR35
To be outside IR35 means that the worker is operating as a genuine business, and therefore operating outside of the IR35 rules.
Status Check
Before you engage with a contractor, you must confirm the IR35 status of an assignment by providing a Status Determination Statement (SDS).
A number of online tools are available to help you determine the status check such as, HMRC’s CEST (check employment status for tax).
