R&D Tax Credits

You Might Already Be Qualifying. Do You Know?

R&D Tax Credits are one of the most underused tax incentives in the UK. The government literally pays businesses to innovate — and yet thousands of companies that qualify never claim.
The reason? Most business owners assume R&D means laboratories and scientists. It does not. If your company has developed a new product, improved an existing process, created software, or solved a technical problem — you may already be doing qualifying R&D without realising it.
At Oasis Accountants, we review your business activities and identify what qualifies. Then we prepare and submit your claim — compliantly, thoroughly, and with the right technical narrative to support it.

FAQ

How much can I claim?

The amount depends on your qualifying expenditure and company size. SMEs can claim an enhanced deduction of up to 186% on eligible costs. We calculate your exact entitlement.

Can I claim for previous years?

Yes - you can typically claim R&D tax credits for up to the last two accounting periods. If you have been doing qualifying work and have not claimed, you may have money to recover.

Is it risky? Will HMRC investigate?

A well-prepared claim with proper documentation is low risk. We write claims to the highest standard - with a technical narrative that demonstrates genuine R&D activity. We have never had a claim clawed back.
