Statutory Standards and Frequently Asked Questions
Edinburgh does not create a special IR35 code for CFO work. The client SDS should name the Edinburgh workplace and delivery model. An inside finding on a Edinburgh CFO brief typically deducts tax at source, while outside IR35 CFO work in Edinburgh is billed by a PSC. Local pay sits on major-city rate parity, so a higher Edinburgh headline rate can still be inside. Commuting into Edinburgh does not, by itself, prove substitution or lack of control. Read the CFO Edinburgh contract for workplace, hours, and equipment clauses.
