FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

CIS payroll covers payments to subcontractors under the Construction Industry Scheme. As the contractor, you deduct tax from the labour element of each payment (20% for registered subcontractors, 30% for unregistered, or 0% for those with gross payment status), pay it to HMRC, file a monthly CIS return and give each subcontractor a deduction statement.

Standard PAYE payroll is for employees and deals with income tax, National Insurance and pensions through Real Time Information. Many construction firms run both, and E-Tech handles both together.
