Protecting you from HMRC investigations

HMRC is increasing its scrutiny, with over 5,000 new tax investigators being hired to target individuals and small business owners. Now more than ever, it’s essential to protect yourself from potentially costly and stressful tax investigations.

Whether it’s a capital gains query, mortgage interest deduction, residence status review, or a full-scale investigation, Fortus is here to help you stay ahead.

Tax Investigation Insurance

At Fortus, we’re committed to protecting our clients — and that includes shielding you from the rising cost and disruption of HMRC enquiries and compliance checks.

HMRC investigations are on the rise, with a 116% increase in recent years. They can be random, time-consuming, and may go back up to 20 years, even if everything appears to be in order.

Our Tax Investigation Insurance (Professional Fee Protection) ensures:

We will defend and advise you if you are selected for investigation – with £100,000 of fees covered

If you're selected, we’ll lead the process, deal directly with HMRC, and provide expert advice — saving you time, stress, and money.

You’ll have 24/7 access to a free helpline offering legal, employment, and health and safety support.

Our cover is extensive and includes a wide range of areas covered for full or partial HMRC enquiries.

What our clients say

With a rapidly expanding manufacturing business and cashflow a constant problem, our bank wouldn’t offer further borrowing, expensive short-term loans seemed the only answer. Fortus took time to understand our business and requirements, presented our story to lenders and had 4 offers within 2 weeks, saving us £20,000 per month in debt repayment.
