Why Compliance Matters Most
Navigating the crowded market of CIS subcontractor payment providers can be overwhelming. With so many companies claiming to be the best, cheapest, or most compliant, how do you know who to trust? At The Guild, we don’t just make claims—we back them up with evidence.
Unmatched HMRC Compliance

The Guild is distinguished by our commitment to total compliance with all HMRC obligations. We don’t just claim to be fully compliant; we prove it. Our processes are fully transparent and recognized by HMRC, ensuring that all our returns for CIS, VAT, and Corporate Taxes are submitted on time and without issue.

Extra Scrutiny, Extra Assurance

As part of HMRC’s large business compliance regime, The Guild is subject to rigorous scrutiny. This includes annual certification to verify the accuracy of our returns and to confirm that no monies are outstanding to HMRC. This extra layer of inspection gives our clients unparalleled assurance that their business is in safe hands.

Compliance: The Crucial Factor

When selecting a CIS payroll provider, HMRC compliance should be your top priority. HMRC has the authority to transfer unpaid debts up and down the contractor chain if there are compliance failures. This makes it essential to choose a provider who can demonstrate their compliance credentials beyond any doubt.

Beware of Unsubstantiated Claims

Don’t be swayed by lower prices or empty promises. With The Guild, you get more than just words—we provide concrete proof of our compliance and our impeccable history with HMRC.

Due Diligence

HMRC’s current approach emphasises due diligence. Failure to prove your due diligence processes can result in your business being held liable for lost revenue if a subcontractor fails to pay HMRC.

Peace of Mind with The Guild

The Guild guarantees compliance, giving contractors complete peace of mind that their CIS payroll processes meet HMRC’s due diligence expectations.

REMINDER: Labour Supply Chain Principles

Don’t Get Caught Out: Due Diligence Checks Are a Must!
Skipping due diligence checks can result in severe legal, financial, and reputational damage, and could even shut down your business. It’s crucial to know which checks to do, when to do them, and how often. Always keep detailed records of everything.

Is Your Labour Supplier Legit? Find Out Now!
Ensure you know where your workers come from, how they’re paid, and whether everything is above board. Don’t risk involvement in dubious deals.

Avoid VAT Fraud: Check Your Labour Supplier’s Registration!
If you knew or should have known about VAT fraud in your transactions, you could lose the right to reclaim tax. Always verify VAT details.

Beware of Too-Good-to-Be-True Deals on Labour!
Suspiciously low charges could indicate that the supplier isn’t meeting tax obligations, or worse, that they’re engaging in exploitation or illegal work. Stay vigilant!

Pay Workers Right: It’s the Law!
Ensure that workers receive their due wages, meeting all contractual agreements and National Minimum Wage laws.

In Construction? Know Your CIS Rules!
Breaking the Construction Industry Scheme (CIS) rules can lead to penalties, extra deductions, and loss of gross payment status with HMRC. This could severely impact your cashflow. Don’t take the risk!

Outsourcing Payroll? Know Your HMRC Obligations!
Ensure that travel, subsistence, and employment intermediary reporting meet HMRC standards. Check if agency rules apply to self-employed workers to avoid pitfalls.

Using Agency or Temporary Workers? Avoid Tax and NI Trouble!
Correctly identify who should handle PAYE to avoid the risk of paying unpaid taxes and National Insurance contributions.

Intermediaries and Personal Service Companies: Know Your Responsibilities!
If you’re in the public sector, you must determine if off-payroll working rules apply and who should manage PAYE.

Stop Tax Evasion: Protect Your Business!
Implement procedures to prevent the facilitation of tax evasion. Failure to do so could lead to prosecution and unlimited fines. Stay compliant and protect your business.
