Enterprise Investment Scheme (EIS)

30% income tax relief on qualifying investments in early-stage UK companies.

The Enterprise Investment Scheme (EIS) gives 30% income tax relief on qualifying investments in small UK companies (up to £1m/year, £2m if knowledge-intensive). Tax-free growth, plus CGT deferral and loss relief.

Hold for at least 3 years to keep the relief. We claim it via the SA101 supplementary page — commonly missed by DIY filers.
