If you are an Entertainer or Sportsperson working in the UK as part of your profession then you are likely to be within the UK’s Foreign Entertainers scheme and tax should be deducted from any payments made to you.
If you are making any payment to a non-UK resident entertainer directly or indirectly for an appearance in the UK, the responsibility for deducting the tax and making payment to H M Revenue & Customs will fall on you, as you are deemed to be the payer.
The amount of tax to be deducted can be a very complex issue. We at
Frenkels Forensics Chartered Accountants help payers and sportspersons/entertainers pay the least amount of tax by ensuring that you obtain your reduced tax entitlement.
