Welcome to IR35 Rules

At IR35 Rules, we make complex IR35 legislation simple and straightforward to understand, and even easier to manage.
Helping Contractors and Businesses Navigate IR35
IR35, which is also known as the off-payroll working rules, impacts contractors who provide services though a ‘middle man’, such as a limited company. Regardless of the industry or niche, if
HMRC considers the relationship between you and your client to be more like an employer and employee arrangement, you might be classed as working ‘inside’ IR35, and this impacts your tax liabilities.
But, IR35 isn't always straightforward, and it trips a lot of people up. That’s why a growing number of contractors and businesses are turning to expert guidance, which is where IR35 Rules comes in.
What is IR35 and Why It Matters
IR35 was introduced by HMRC to stop contractors from avoiding paying tax and National Insurance as an employee by working through a limited company, even though they operate like an employee.
- Working Inside IR35 - your income will be taxed in a similar way to how a permanent employee is taxed. That can mean reduced take-home pay, no dividend options and National Insurance becoming your responsibility.
- Working Outside IR35 - This allows for more financial flexibility, as long as you can prove genuine self-employment through your contract and working practices.
At IR35 Rules, we help you to understand where you stand, how to check your IR35 status accurately, and how to stay on the right side of HMRC. With us, you can say goodbye to guesswork and complex jargon, and hello to expert IR35 advice.
