Which HMRC office deals with SEIS?

📘 Overview

The Seed Enterprise Investment Scheme (SEIS) and the Enterprise Investment Scheme (EIS) are both managed by a specialist branch of HMRC known as the Small Company Enterprise Centre (SCEC).

This is the team responsible for processing SEIS and EIS advance-assurance applications, compliance statements, and investor queries.
