Self assessment
There are a number of reasons why you may be asked to complete a tax return for the first time. For example, if you:
- Become a company director
- Start to receive income from land and property in the UK
- Have taxable foreign income of more than £300
- Sell shares, property or other assets liable to capital gains tax
- Have annual income of £100,000 or more
- Receive untaxed income which cannot be collected through your PAYE code
The easiest way to register for Self Assessment is to phone the H M Revenue & Customs (HMRC) helpline on 0845 900 0444.
We are more than happy to help you if you require any further assistance with the registration process or with any other related matter.
