What Is CIS?
CIS stands for the Construction Industry Scheme.
It is an HMRC scheme covering certain payments made by contractors to subcontractors carrying out construction work.
Under CIS, a contractor may need to deduct money from a subcontractor’s payment and pass that deduction to HMRC.
For subcontractors, those deductions count towards their tax position.
For contractors, CIS can mean additional responsibilities including checking subcontractors, calculating deductions, keeping records and submitting monthly returns.
For busy construction businesses, keeping CIS organised alongside bookkeeping, VAT, payroll and tax can quickly become time-consuming.
Fletcher & Gill can help manage the accounting side of CIS for contractors and subcontractors in Leeds.

CIS Accountant for Contractors in Leeds
If your business pays subcontractors for construction work, you may have responsibilities as a CIS contractor.
These can include registering correctly, checking the status of subcontractors, making the appropriate deductions, keeping records and submitting information to HMRC.
Fletcher & Gill can help make the process easier.
CIS support for contractors can include:
Subcontractor Verification
Before paying certain subcontractors, contractors may need to verify them with HMRC.
Their status helps determine the rate of CIS deduction that should be applied.
Keeping this information correct from the start can prevent problems later.
CIS Deductions
Different deduction rates can apply depending on the subcontractor’s CIS status.
We can help ensure your accounting records accurately reflect payments and CIS deductions.
Monthly CIS Returns
Contractors making payments to subcontractors generally have monthly CIS reporting responsibilities.
We can help keep the information organised and prepare the figures needed for your CIS reporting.
CIS Bookkeeping
Good CIS records begin with good bookkeeping.
We can help keep subcontractor invoices, payments, deductions and other construction costs organised throughout the year.
Wider Construction Accounting
We can also help with the rest of your business accounts, including:
• VAT
• payroll
• annual accounts
• Corporation Tax
• Self Assessment
• bookkeeping
• business expenses
• limited company accounts
This means your CIS accounting does not need to be treated as a completely separate part of the business.
These can include registering correctly, checking the status of subcontractors, making the appropriate deductions, keeping records and submitting information to HMRC.

What Are the CIS Deduction Rates?
The CIS deduction made from a subcontractor’s payment depends on their status with HMRC.
The main CIS rates are:
20% – generally for registered subcontractors
30% – generally where a subcontractor is not registered or cannot be verified correctly
0% – where the subcontractor has approved gross payment status
The correct treatment depends on the circumstances of the subcontractor and payment.
If you are unsure whether the correct CIS deduction is being made, Fletcher & Gill can help you understand the figures appearing in your accounting records.

Do CIS Subcontractors Still Need a Tax Return?
Yes, CIS deductions do not necessarily remove the need to complete a tax return.
If you are self-employed, the income you earn, CIS deductions already suffered and allowable business expenses need to be considered when calculating your overall tax position.
This is why it is important to keep your CIS statements and bookkeeping records.
Fletcher & Gill can prepare your Self Assessment tax return and make sure the CIS information is included correctly.

Can a Limited Company Be in CIS?
Yes. Limited companies can operate within CIS.
A limited company may be:
• a contractor
• a subcontractor
• or, in some circumstances, both
The way CIS deductions interact with the company’s wider accounting and tax affairs can differ from those of a self-employed sole trader.
Fletcher & Gill can help with both CIS and limited company accounting, including bookkeeping, annual accounts, Corporation Tax, VAT and payroll where required.

CIS and VAT for Construction Businesses
Some construction businesses need to deal with both CIS and VAT.
This can make the accounting more complicated, particularly when you are dealing with subcontractors, materials, invoices and different VAT rules.
Rather than treating each obligation separately, we can help keep your bookkeeping, CIS and VAT records working together.
If your construction business is VAT registered, Fletcher & Gill can provide ongoing VAT and accounting support.
