Compliance and Security
We take the security of your personal information very seriously. Our platform uses industry-standard encryption and secure data storage practices to protect your data. We are also fully compliant with GDPR regulations.
Are your tax advisors qualified?
Yes, all of our tax advisors are qualified and experienced professionals with extensive knowledge of UK tax law. They are committed to providing accurate, reliable advice tailored to your specific circumstances.
Will you represent me if HMRC questions my tax return?
We are unable to contact HMRC on your behalf or complete any forms you have received. As the taxpayer, you are solely responsible for complying with all HMRC requests. However, we can advise you on the meaning of their letters and suggest the best next steps.
If you have purchased additional tax services from Flowtax and we have agreed to represent you as your authorised tax agent, then our team will handle all communications with HMRC and represent you if HMRC raises any questions or concerns about your tax return.
Can you register me with HMRC?
We are unable to register you with HMRC directly. However, the registration process is straightforward and only needs to be completed once. We can help you understand your obligations. For instance, if you have recently become self-employed or need to file a tax return for the first time, we can assist you in registering with HMRC and obtaining your Unique Taxpayer Reference (UTR). Please note that it can take up to two weeks for HMRC to send the confirmation.
