On April 6th 2000 the law in the UK changed regarding the way in which freelancers could pay themselves. The Revenue in a Press Release (IR35) following the 1999 Budget statement announced this change.
The aim of this legislation is to ensure that individuals who are operating through an “intermediary” such as a personal service limited company pay the same Tax and National Insurance, as would a ‘similar’ individual carrying out the same work as an employee. The legislation requires such intermediaries to review the terms of each of their contracts and determine whether the working arrangements between the contractor and the end client point towards employment rather than self-employment.
