RE: Unable to access on-line forms for 24/25, are they available or should I submit paper forms?
Hi,
If you need to submit a 24/25 return but your record has been closed, you can reregister to file here - Check how to register for Self Assessment .
This should then allow you to file your 24/25 return online.
Alternatively, contact us by webchat or post via Self Assessment: general enquiries - we can update your record to allow you to file for 24/25.
Thank you. -
RE: Calculating Bank interest on self assessment
Hi,
It is most likely that you are entering your untaxed interest figures (provided by your bank) in 'Taxed UK interest' (hence the request to enter the net amount).
Enter your total gross untaxed interest in the box underneath, titled 'Untaxed UK interest etc', or contact us by webchat or phone via Self Assessment: general enquiries for more advice.
Thank you. -

Hi Florin181994,
Unfortunately, in order to progress your query here, we would need to review what evidence you have provided to verify your identity, and access
your record to review the progress of any fixes identified.
Contact us by webchat or phone via Technical support with HMRC online services to allow us to do this.

RE: tax refund for 2024-2025 and P60
Hi,
Following the end of the tax year, any employers you worked for in that tax year will send us confirmation of your pay and tax with them - we cannot usually reconcile your record and issue any repayments due until they do this.
We usually receive this information from your employers within a few months of the tax year ending.
That said, if you were Self Employed during the 24/25 tax year, you may be due to file a 24/25 tax return.
When you file a tax return, any rebate due is usually available to claim immediately after.
To confirm whether you are due to file a return, and for more advice, contact us by webchat or phone via
Self Assessment: general enquiries

RE: VAT during supplier registration
Hi Simon Charters,
A business that is going through the process of registering for VAT can increase their prices to cover for VAT until a VAT number is provided to them.
Please refer to VAT notice 700/1 section 5.1

RE: Self Assessment
Hi Milltim Rog,
If you are in receipt of a UK private pension / UK state pension and you are resident in Spain, then your private / state pension is taxable in Spain.
You need to download and complete the DT individual form at Double Taxation: UK - Spain (Form Spain-Individual).
You fill out the form to declare your private pensions / annuities / state pension and send the signed form to your local Spanish Tax office.
They will validate the form by giving you a "Residencia Fiscal En Espana Convenio" certificate.
You send the certificate and the form to HMRC, so that we can advise your pension provder to cease deducting tax.
If you are in receipt of a UK pension in a tax year that has ended and you were not UK resident in that tax year, then you will need to declare the pension and tax deducted in your self assessment tax return.
You will also need to include form HS304 (Non-residents tax relief under double taxation agreements (Self Assessment helpsheet HS304) and a "residencia Fiscal En Espana Convenio" in order to claim a tax repayment.
Please note that it must be "Residencia Fiscal En Espana Convenio". "Residencia Fiscal En Espana" is not acceptable as it does not confirm you are tax resident in Spain under the UK/Spain tax treaty.
Thank you. -

RE: What creates a permanent establishment?
Hi Max Muster,
I have attached a link which should help clarify.
Part two of this document stipulates that:
A permanent establishment is where a company has a presence in a country through which trade is carried out.
There are two types of permanent establishment:
a fixed place of business
a dependent agent
A fixed place of business is generally a building or a site which the non-resident’s personnel have at their disposal and use to carry out the non-resident’s business. An office, a factory or a shop, for example, can all be a fixed place of business.
A dependent agent is a person who is not independent of the non-resident company and regularly does business for the company, usually by concluding contracts on its behalf.
Guidance found here: HMRC issue briefing: taxing the profits of companies that are not resident in the UK
Thank you. -
RE: Corporation tax
Hi Greg Mackay,
First and foremost a UTR for an offshore company cannot be generated over the phone and you must write in with the relevant information including the reason(s) you require a record and UTR to be established.
With regards to payment this goes entirely on the effective date of payment.
Whilst not normally advisable in your circumstances you can make a payment using a dummy reference such as '1111111111' and once the record is established along with confirmation of the UTR you can write or call to confirm this at which point we can allocate the payment to the established record and in turn reserve the effective date of payment which would ensure the avoidance of late payment interest.
Thank you.
