Do I need to Complete a Self-Assessment Tax Return?

You will need to complete a self-assessment tax return if you have any income that’s not PAYE (i.e.: paid via employment with a company).

PAYE pay deducts the tax from your salary before it is paid into your account – you can see this on your pay slip. If you have other taxable source of income then you will need to register for self-assessment and complete your annual return to pay the tax amount you owe.

You are self employed
You are a director of a limited Company
You are a minister of religion
You are a landlord or rent a room online, e.g., Airbnb
You gather income from savings or investment
You have a secondary overseas income

What happens if I miss the deadline?

Missing out on your self-assessment deadline will result in an automatic penalty. You will be charged for each day that your tax return is late, up to a fixed amount. There are various other penalties for non-compliance, so it is best to ensure that your tax return is done before the deadline and you are able to pay the tax you owe.

Penalties

Things to consider…

- Late submission – £100
- Late submission continued – £10 per day up to a maximum of £900
- Late submission 6+ months – additional penalty of 3% or £300 (whichever is greater)
- Late submission 12 months – another £300 on top of the above listed penalties
