2026 Rural Tax - Advanced 1 (live webinar)

This is the first of three Rural Tax Advanced 2026 webinars. In each session, we focus on the practical tax implications of significant legislative changes, Inland Revenue statements, technical decisions, and case law that have occurred in the past few months as they pertain to a specialist area of the primary sector.

The webinars are perfect for practitioners wanting to stay abreast of the latest tax changes and the effect these will have on them and their clients.

Note: a more detailed summary of course content will be published closer to the date of the webinar. 

Upon satisfactory completion of this course, you will be able to:

• appreciate the implications of recent changes on you and your clients
• advise clients about prospective tax changes
• keep up to date with key tax changes.

This course will be suited to:

• senior primary sector accountants, tax aware intermediate level accountants and those who have an interest in the specific rules around this topic
• chartered accountants in public practice and their tax aware staff, and tax aware corporate accountants.

Duration: 1.00 CPD hours (approx. 55 mins content + 5 mins Q&A)
