Subcontracted R&D, EPWs & overseas costs under the merged RDEC scheme – 11 February 2026

Описание: The rules around subcontracted R&D, EPWs and overseas costs have changed substantially under the new regime, requiring more thought during claim preparation.

This session is designed to help firms make confident, evidence-led decisions when reviewing and identifying costs in these areas.

We focused on:
•Who can legitimately claim for subcontracted R&D and why, especially when multiple parties are involved
•How the overseas costs restrictions affect subcontracted R&D and EPW costs, including when exclusions apply and when they don’t
•Where firms are unnecessarily excluding costs “to stay safe” – and the risks that creates in both directions
•Why applying SME-era logic to merged RDEC claims no longer works
•Plus, a live Q&A

Jen demonstrated how WhisperClaims software structures claim preparation in particular scenarios, helping firms apply the correct logic consistently, test eligibility and avoid defaulting to over-exclusion out of uncertainty.

This webinar was designed for accountants and advisers who want to strengthen their approach against HMRC scrutiny, tighten internal processes and ensure their claims are consistent, repeatable and robust.
