I did this part way through my first contract and it is possible. Speak to the agency though as it will be them who has to re issue paperwork.

The contract may be tied between the agency and the umbrella so they may not want to re issue the contract mid term. I have tried this before and was told to wait until next renewal.

Switching from Umbrella to Ltd Co part way through a contract

I've been contracting for just over 12 months now. Went with an umbrella company at first, but have decided that the contracting lifestyle suits me so I want to go Ltd. I'm in a contract until the begining of May. Is it easy (or even possible) to switch to a Ltd Co from an umbrella part way through a contract?

Cheers

Mark
