Tax matters. It helps to fund vital public goods and services from education, health and social care, to flood defence, roads, policing and defence.

The Fair Tax Mark certification scheme was launched in February 2014 and seeks to encourage and recognise organisations that pay the right amount of corporation tax at the right time and in the right place. We operate as a not-for-profit social enterprise and believe that companies paying tax responsibly should be celebrated, and any race to the bottom resisted.

To date, we have focussed on certifying businesses head-quartered in the UK, but a suite of global standards will be rolled out in 2021.
