Appointing a Tax Agent

Updated: 2024-01-12 07:44:35

Introduction and Overview

The Approach to this and all Articles is consistent with our Standard System and Procedure.
The necessary work on the appointment of Avar as your Tax Agents has been undertaken:
- For you personally and partnerships (if applicable).
- For your Company or LLP (if applicable).
- For your Trust or Joint Venture (if applicable).
- The necessary Form(s) 64-8 will be attached separately.
- It requires your signature in the box above the date.
- Then, please post it directly to HM Revenue & Customs to the address in note 5.
- Send us a soft copy for our records.
- Request making Avar Online Agents will be submitted and a copy sent to you.
- HM Revenue & Customs will send you a code by post.
- This must be notified to Avar on receipt as it expires soon thereafter.

This is a form that you can submit to HM Revenue & Customs.
It gives HM Revenue & Customs authority to discuss your tax affairs and deal with your accountant or tax agent directly.
HM Revenue & Customs cannot discuss any matter without this form and is therefore very important.
This authorisation does not transfer any responsibility to the agent, all responsibility remains with the tax payer.

HM Revenue & Customs may speak to your advisers on:
Individual Tax Affairs.
Trust Tax.
Partnership Tax Affairs (Each individual will need to sign a separate form 64-8).
Pay As You Earn.
Construction Industry Scheme (CIS).
Corporation Tax.
If more than one agent is acting for you, a separate form 64-8 is required for each agent.
The services that each agent will be dealing with should be made clear on the form.
Your agent will be able to receive your Self-Assessment statement if you have requested this.
