PRESS RELEASES Date: 12th December 2009 Company Tax Reduction for Patent Licence income Promised In the pre-budget announcement last week the UK Government introduced Corporate tax reduction to 10% on all company profits from Patent licensing. All companies will now pay only 10% on profits from Patent licence income, instead of the normal Corporate Tax (Currently 20%). If you are a company with one or more subsidiary companies using patented technology, you should consider seeking advice from your accountant about the possibility of putting your patent(s) in the name of a holding company, and licensing your subsidiary company or companies under the patents. In this way the holding company pays 10% tax on the profits from licensing and the subsidiaries may be able to set their patent licence costs against corporate Tax. We are not competent to advise on financial matters - You must seek advice from a qualified Accountant.
