Recent years have seen HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC), devote more and more of their resources towards enquiries and investigations, and there is no sign that this is likely to change in the immediate future.

Whether it is in connection with you personally or focuses on your business, an HMRC tax enquiry can often be an intrusive and stressful experience, while also proving costly in terms of time and professional fees.

Any individual or business can be subject to a tax enquiry. Some investigations are opened due to inconsistencies within the accounts or tax returns, or sometimes because of HMRC choosing to target specific business sectors. Some can be entirely random.
