ABBEY WOOD CONTRACTORS

IR35 advice for Elizabeth line commuters

The Elizabeth line has made Abbey Wood one of the most convenient SE London locations for contractors working in the City and Canary Wharf. With that comes increased scrutiny on IR35 status — and the difference between inside and outside IR35 can be thousands of pounds a year.

We review your contracts, assess your working practices and advise on the safest, most tax-efficient structure — whether that means operating through a limited company, an umbrella company, or moving to PAYE.
