Partner Hilesh Chavda in favour of moving year-end dates to modernise UK tax system
Our Private Client Partner Hilesh Chavda has been featured in leading accounting publication Accountancy Age, discussing The Office of Tax Simplification’s proposal to move the end of year tax dates.
The article notes that the tax year ends on December 31 in countries including the USA, France and Germany, and Ireland also moved its dates to the end of the calendar year in 2002.
Hilesh is in favour of the proposal, commenting that aligning the dates will make it easier for international clients and those with international connections who are “often caught unaware of the random arbitrary date”.
