Guidance and letters for joining and leaving Self Assessment – who needs to register, the 5 October deadline, notifying chargeability for untaxed income, asking HMRC to withdraw a notice to file, and closing a Self Assessment record when you stop trading or letting.
Letters to HMRC & personal tax
Self Assessment Registration, Notification and Request to Leave Self Assessment
About this document
If you have income that is not taxed at source – such as self-employment, rental income, large investment income or a capital gain – you may need to tell HMRC and register for Self Assessment. If your circumstances change and you no longer need to file returns, you can ask HMRC to withdraw a notice to file, which avoids penalties for returns you do not need to send.
The document is laid out in the sections below. Each one comes with a plain-English guidance note explaining what it does and what to change.
Our templates are professionally structured starting points for UK businesses, not legal advice. For anything complex, unusual or high-value, have your final version checked by a solicitor.
