A numbers-led decision guide for doctors and consultants weighing whether to incorporate their private practice: sole trader versus limited company on 2026/27 figures, the NHS pension interaction, IR35 and spouse shareholding, extraction strategy, when not to incorporate, and worked examples at £40k, £80k and £150k of private income.
Consultants who draw cash from their private-practice company without declaring a formal dividend create an overdrawn director's loan account, which triggers a section 455 charge at the dividend upper rate: 33.75% on loans made in 2025/26 and 35.75% on loans made on or after 6 April 2026. The charge is temporary and repaid under s.458 once the loan is cleared, but the relief is deferred by up to a year, not instant. This guide covers the rate change, the beneficial-loan benefit in kind on balances above £10,000, the anti-avoidance rules that block repay-and-redraw, and the NHS pension angle that applies whenever money moves through a medical company.
A family investment company (FIC) is a bespoke private limited company holding investments rather than running a medical practice. For a high-earning consultant or GP with income already in the additional-rate band and surplus wealth beyond the NHS pension, it can shelter retained income at corporation-tax rates of 19-25% instead of 45% personal tax and keep future growth outside the estate. This guide explains the tax, share classes, IHT planning, and the settlements, minor-children and BADR traps that mean a FIC suits only doctors with genuine scale and a long-run family-wealth goal.
