What is a tax disclosure to HMRC?

A tax disclosure is the process of telling HMRC about income, gains, VAT, tax return errors or earlier-year omissions that have not been reported correctly. This may involve rental income, self-employed income, second income, foreign income, offshore bank interest, foreign property income, Capital Gains Tax, company income, director issues, VAT errors or other undeclared tax.

The disclosure should explain what happened, calculate the unpaid tax, include statutory interest, consider penalties and provide the supporting figures. HMRC may ask questions after the disclosure, so the calculation and explanation need to be clear and defensible from the start.

Voluntary disclosure • Prompted disclosure • HMRC nudge letter

Disclose before HMRC finds the issue first

A disclosure made before HMRC contacts you is usually treated differently from one made after HMRC has already prompted you. HMRC’s compliance manual gives an example of a prompted disclosure where HMRC contacted a taxpayer after identifying possible rental income. The timing of disclosure can therefore affect the penalty position.

If you have received an HMRC nudge letter, compliance check letter or information request, you should not ignore it. The disclosure may still be possible, but the strategy, penalty explanation and response to HMRC need to be handled carefully.

HMRC disclosure routes and deadlines

Choosing the right HMRC disclosure route

HMRC has different routes depending on the tax issue. The Digital Disclosure Service can be used to tell HMRC about income or gains that were not declared from previous tax years. If the disclosure involves offshore income, assets or gains, HMRC says the Worldwide Disclosure Facility should be used. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}

Landlords with undisclosed residential property income may use the Let Property Campaign. HMRC’s Let Property Campaign guidance says that after notifying HMRC, landlords have 90 days from the notification acknowledgement to work out and pay what they owe. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}

Why use a specialist tax accountant for tax disclosure?

A tax disclosure is not just a calculation. HMRC needs to understand what went wrong, how the figures have been calculated, which years are affected, what behaviour category applies, whether the disclosure is prompted, and how tax, interest and penalties have been worked out. A weak or incomplete disclosure can lead to further questions, higher penalties or a compliance check.

We help you avoid common disclosure mistakes

  • Using the wrong HMRC disclosure route
  • Disclosing too few tax years
  • Ignoring interest and penalty calculations
  • Claiming expenses without evidence
  • Failing to explain behaviour and disclosure quality
  • Sending figures that cannot be defended if HMRC asks questions

Common questions

Tax Disclosure Coventry FAQs

What is a voluntary tax disclosure to HMRC?

A voluntary tax disclosure is the process of telling HMRC about unpaid tax, undeclared income, gains or tax return errors before HMRC fully identifies the issue. The disclosure normally includes tax calculations, interest, penalties and an explanation of what happened.

What is the Let Property Campaign?

The Let Property Campaign is an HMRC disclosure route for landlords with undisclosed residential property income from the UK or abroad. After notification, HMRC’s guidance says landlords normally have 90 days from the acknowledgement to calculate and pay what they owe.

What is the Worldwide Disclosure Facility?

The Worldwide Disclosure Facility is used where the disclosure involves offshore income, assets or gains. This can include overseas bank interest, foreign rental income, foreign dividends, overseas pensions or other undeclared offshore income and gains.

Can I disclose income after HMRC has contacted me?

Yes, but the position is different if HMRC has already contacted you. This may be treated as a prompted disclosure, which can affect penalty mitigation. The disclosure still needs to be accurate, complete and carefully explained.

How many years do I need to disclose to HMRC?

The number of years depends on the type of tax, behaviour, whether the issue was careless or deliberate, and whether the matter involves offshore income. We review the facts before deciding which years should be included.

Will HMRC charge penalties on a disclosure?

HMRC may charge penalties depending on the facts. Penalties can be affected by behaviour, whether the disclosure was prompted or unprompted, and the quality of disclosure. A well-prepared disclosure can help support penalty mitigation.

Can you prepare the disclosure and deal with HMRC?

Yes. We can calculate the tax, interest and penalty exposure, prepare the disclosure, submit it to HMRC where authorised and deal with HMRC follow-up questions through to settlement.

Can I get an instant quote for tax disclosure work?

You can request an initial quote, but tax disclosure work usually needs a review of the tax years, income source, HMRC contact history and records available before a final fee can be confirmed. Complex disclosures may require staged fees.
