Company Profile

We stick closely to the tax rules, to protect you, and our reputation. We work hard to help you make the most of the money you have earned. And we keep everything nice and straightforward. This is how our PAYE umbrella service works:

  1. You become an employee of Smart Tax - just complete our online registration form, or we can post a paper form to you. No complicated procedures, joining fee or tie-ins to worry about.
  2. Give us the details of your contract, as well as your agency or direct client, and we'll manage the rest
  3. We complete the required formal checks i.e. identification and eligibility to work in the UK, using copies of ID provided by you
  4. You, or your agency, informs us how many hours you've worked and we turn the time sheets into invoices
  5. We invoice your agency or client for the gross amount
  6. You send us your expense claim forms, with copies of your supporting receipts for verification purposes. We then reimburse you for these expenses
  7. We make necessary PAYE deductions and pay you as soon as we receive cleared funds from your agency/client. All Tax and National Insurance is deducted at source so there are no further deductions to worry about
  8. We'll email your payslip and text you to let you know you've been paid.A PAYE umbrella company allows contractors to make the most of their earning while avoiding the headaches and responsibilities involved in handling your own tax and payroll arrangements. Smart Tax offers a fully compliant PAYE payroll solution.
    It's the smart way to do things because:

You don't have the responsibility or liability that goes with running your own limited company - you become an employee of the umbrella company

  • If you're new to contracting an umbrella company is the easiest way to start
  • An umbrella company means you don't need to worry about IR35
  • Because umbrella companies make full PAYE deductions, and process your expenses with every payment, you don't need to worry about submitting tax returns
  • An umbrella company takes care of all administration, so you don't have the hassles of invoices, payslips, tax, NI deductions and contract paperwork
