How To Apply For The Utr In 3 Simple Ways

By:


If you are newly self-employed, you will be required to fill out your own tax return - something that is commonly known as self-assessment. For you to be able to fill out a tax return as a self-employed person, (either in a partnership or in a sole proprietorship,) you will need to have a Unique Taxpayer Reference Number also know as the UTR. The process of getting this number, although simple, can easily turn out to be a complete nightmare if at all you do not follow the right steps. On the other hand, it can be very simple if you follow the right steps. We are going to look at three ways that can help you get the number without any hustles.

Contact Your Local Tax Office

This is one of the easiest ways of doing so if at all you want to get over the whole process very fast. Simply go to your local tax office with the documents that have been listed at the website of the HMRC. Some of the documents include your national insurance number, your passport, some photos and so on. Once you have this with you, you will be given a form to fill which you should be able to do within a very short time. You can then go home and then relax as you wait for the UTR to come through the post.

Through The Post Office

You can also get your UTR by applying through the post. You can download the relevant form from the website of the HMRC and customs and then fill it out. Once you have filled it out, you can then send it to your local tax office where they will look at it and then send you the appropriate number for you within a few weeks.

Apply Over The Internet

Another very simple way of applying for the UTR is through the online service. You will provide the required information on the website of the company and then you will receive a notification from them that they have received the application that you sent to them. Within a few weeks, you should be able o receive your UTR at your local postal address.

As you apply for your UTR, you need to keep in mind the fact that this number is considered to be extremely important and confidential. Once you receive it, keep it in a safe and secure place where no one can come and get it to use it against your interest.
