How did Palantir pay just £2m in UK corporation tax despite £247m in revenue?

  • Palantir paid £2.1 million in UK corporation tax in 2024, despite generating £247 million in UK revenue.
  • The AI company now holds an estimated £670 million in UK government contracts.
  • Researchers say international tax arrangements reduce Palantir's tax bill, while the company says it follows all applicable tax laws.

The amount of UK corporation tax paid by Palantir has come under fresh scrutiny after a report claimed the US software company paid just £2.1 million in Britain during 2024, despite the UK becoming one of its biggest overseas markets and a major source of government contracts.

The findings, published by the Centre for International Corporate Tax Accountability and Research (CICTAR) and commissioned by trade union Unison, suggest Palantir generated £247 million in UK revenue during 2024 while paying corporation tax at an effective rate of just over 8 per cent, well below the UK's headline corporation tax rate of 25 per cent.
