Understanding SEIS and EIS: Your Tax-Advantage Arsenal
Investing in startups carries risk. SEIS (Seed Enterprise Investment Scheme) and EIS (Enterprise Investment Scheme) help you offset that risk. Here’s how they work in plain English.
What Is SEIS?
SEIS targets brand-new startups. It offers up to:
– 50 per cent income tax relief on investments up to £100,000 per tax year.
– Capital gains exemption on any profits made.
– Loss relief if the startup falls flat.
It’s like a safety net for your daring bets. If you want to dive deeper and understand the finer points, Learn about SEIS and see how it fits into your strategy.
What Is EIS?
EIS is for ventures a little further down the line. Benefits include:
– 30 per cent income tax relief on investments up to £1 million each year.
– Capital gains deferral if you roll gains into an EIS opportunity.
– Tax-free growth on any profits.
– Inheritance Tax relief after two years.
