About us
ITContracting.com contains hundreds of guides to help you navigate the world of IT contracting. Using contributions from dozens of industry experts, we cover everything from choosing the right business structure to navigating IR35 and tax.
Since launching in 2013, the site has built a large library of practical resources for UK contractors, covering topics such as limited companies, contractor tax planning, IR35, and changes to the regulatory landscape affecting the contracting industry.
ITContracting.com is an independent publisher focused on the UK contracting sector. The site is editorially controlled and is not owned by any recruitment agency, umbrella company or accountancy firm.
Our aim is to explain complex contracting, tax, and compliance issues in a clear, practical way for contractors running their own businesses.
Articles published on ITContracting.com are written by experienced contractors, accountants and industry specialists. All content is reviewed by the editor before publication.
