If you’re in the Construction Industry Scheme (CIS) you can be a contractor, a subcontractor or both. Do you know what you are?  Find out this and more in HMRC's YouTube videos.

Learn about being a subcontractor in CIS by watching our two short videos:

  • Construction Industry Scheme for Sub-Contractors - Pt 1  

  • Construction Industry Scheme for Sub-Contractors - Pt 2

Read about what subcontractors need to do here, and don’t forget to check out HMRC's online learning.

Even if you understand CIS, you may know someone who feels that their deductions from payments are too high. This may happen if they give the wrong information to contractors.

Share the links in this article with them so they can learn what to do.
