Authorising your Agent

Give your personal details or company registered office here

I confirm that the nominated agent has agreed to act on my behalf, and the authorisation is correct and complete. 

This authorisation is limited to the matters indicated on this form.

Give your agent’s details here

Your agent will have access to your Self Assessment and Partnership information such as your income, tax, national insurance, pension as well as your personal and financial information. For more information go to www.gov.uk/selfassessment

Your agent will have access to your company and financial information and be able to update the company communication and contact details. For more information go to www.gov.uk/topic/business-tax/corporation-tax
Your agent will have access to your personal and financial information relating to your Tax Credit claim. They can act on your behalf but cannot receive payments. Correspondence will still be sent to you. For joint tax credit claims we need both claimants to sign this authority for HMRC to deal with your agent. For more information go to www.gov.uk/taxcredits

If you have a joint tax credit claim and the other claimant wants HMRC to deal with this agent, they must give their name and sign here

Please note if you have signed up for Making Tax Digital for VAT, this form cannot be used to authorise an agent to manage your Making Tax Digital services. We’ll continue to send correspondence to you rather than to your agent but we can deal with your agent in writing or by phone on specific matters. If your agent wants to submit VAT returns online on your behalf, you’ll need to authorise them through your business tax account or ask your agent to begin authorisation through their digital services. You may receive a letter containing a PIN which you’ll need to pass to your agent to complete authorisation. For more information go to www.gov.uk/topic/business-tax/vat
