Autumn Budget 2024: What to Expect? 🚨 With Chancellor Rachel Reeves’s first Budget set for October 30th, potential tax changes could impact businesses and individuals across the UK. While income tax, national insurance, and VAT increases have been ruled out, other tax rises and spending cuts may still be on the way as the Government tackles a £20 billion deficit. In our latest article, we cover key areas to watch, including changes to Furnished Holiday Lets, Capital Gains Tax, Inheritance Tax, and Pensions. Read more to stay ahead 👇 #Autumnbudget2024 #Taxplanning #Budgetupdate

The Government have announced the removal of tax reliefs for Furnished Holiday Lets (FHL), set to take effect from the 6th April 2025. This change marks a departure from the tax regime that has been in place since 1982, which was designed to offer favourable tax treatment to owners of FHL properties. Proper planning and timely actions can help mitigate the impact and take advantage of any remaining benefits before they are phased out.

With the 2024 Budget on the horizon, anticipated changes to Business Asset Disposal Relief and Capital Gains Tax rates could impact your plans to sell or close your company. Consider the benefits of a Members’ Voluntary Liquidation (MVL) before these potential changes take effect.
