What is tax funding?
Tax funding is a short-term finance solution that allows you to spread the cost of your tax liabilities over a fixed period rather than paying a large lump sum to HMRC. This financing option is particularly useful for covering the following:
Corporation Tax – due nine months and one day after the end of your accounting period.
Self-Assessment Tax – due twice a year (January and July).
VAT Bills – due quarterly for most businesses.
PAYE and National Insurance Contributions – monthly or quarterly obligations for employers.
Instead of struggling to make a one-off payment, tax funding allows you to break it down into manageable monthly instalments, giving you greater financial flexibility and reducing the risk of late payment penalties.
Who can benefit from tax funding?
Tax funding is a flexible option for a range of businesses and individuals, including:
Limited companies needing support with Corporation Tax payments.
Sole traders and self-employed individuals facing Self-Assessment tax deadlines.
Businesses managing VAT payments that want to smooth out cash flow.
Employers handling PAYE & NIC payments who want better financial planning.

What are the business benefits of tax funding?
Avoid late payment penalties and interest
HMRC applies penalties and interest for late payments, which can quickly add up and put further pressure on your finances. By securing tax funding, you ensure timely payments and avoid unnecessary fines.
Maintain cash flow stability
Rather than depleting your working capital to pay a large tax bill, tax funding enables you to preserve cash for essential business expenses, investments, or unexpected costs. This ensures that your business remains financially resilient even during high-tax periods.
Predictable budgeting
With fixed monthly repayments, tax funding provides certainty and control over your outgoings, making it easier to budget for future financial commitments. Knowing exactly how much you need to pay each month removes financial uncertainty and helps you plan ahead.
Protect credit line
Unlike using a business overdraft or credit card, tax funding is a dedicated financing solution that doesn’t tie up existing credit facilities. This ensures that you retain financial flexibility for other business needs without maxing out available credit.
Quick and simple application process
Many tax funding providers offer a straightforward application process with quick approvals, ensuring you have the funds in place before your tax deadline arrives. This means you can focus on running your business without unnecessary administrative delays.
Don’t let a tax deadline disrupt your business
With the right tax funding solution, you can meet HMRC deadlines stress-free, avoid penalties and keep your cash flow healthy.
