SEIS & EIS Tax Relief
SEIS & EIS Tax Relief – Helping Your Business Grow
We support businesses and investors in making the most of the Seed Enterprise Investment Scheme (SEIS) and Enterprise Investment Scheme (EIS). These government-backed schemes encourage investment in small businesses by offering valuable tax reliefs to investors. If you’re looking to attract funding or invest tax-efficiently, understanding SEIS and EIS is key.
What are SEIS and EIS?
SEIS and EIS are designed to help small businesses raise capital by offering generous tax incentives to investors who purchase new shares in eligible companies.

- Have fewer than 250 employees (EIS) or 25 employees (SEIS)
- Have assets worth less than £15 million (EIS) or £200,000 (SEIS)
- Be unlisted on a major stock exchange (AIM-listed companies qualify)
SEIS Tax Relief – Supporting Start-Ups
SEIS is tailored for early-stage businesses, helping them secure crucial funding.
- Investors can invest up to £200,000 per tax year
- Receive 50% income tax relief on their investment

How Businesses Can Attract SEIS & EIS Investment
