Personal Tax

We all pay tax, but it’s important to make sure you’re paying the right amount and in the most efficient way.

What is personal tax?

Personal tax is all the money you pay in tax as an individual. This includes income tax, capital gains tax, inheritance tax and so on. We all have to pay it, though the trick is to pay exactly what you owe and not a penny more.

Whether you want to look after your children, sell some assets, or just can’t make sense of a self-assessment form, talk to Tees. We’ll deal with any tax issue quickly, efficiently and on time.
