The UK offers a stable business environment with well-established legal frameworks and access to capital markets. As a major global economy, it provides opportunities for companies looking to expand internationally.
Setting up operations in the UK means understanding the local regulatory requirements. Two areas need particular attention from the outset.
What you need to know
Getting UK compliance wrong can be costly and time-consuming to fix later. The requirements vary significantly depending on your business size, structure and activities and recent regulatory changes mean some thresholds and obligations have shifted. Both areas are important when establishing a UK presence and understanding them early will help you make informed decisions about your business structure.
Meeting your compliance obligations
Filing deadlines, when you’ll need an audit, which
accounting standards to use, and how recent changes might affect your business.
Understanding your UK tax position
Corporation tax rates, available reliefs like R&D credits, VAT requirements, and how double tax treaties might affect your business.
UK tax and audit guides for international companies
We have created some guides that focus on the practical side of UK compliance. They cover the questions we get asked most often by foreign companies, including current rates, recent regulatory changes, and how these requirements actually work in practice.
