Tell HMRC your new name and address by e-mail
Well…
It’s more complicated than that. You have to use the HMRC website and use the form on that page to send them an e-mail.
The form that you have to complete is, err …, comprehensive and will take a few minutes to complete. In addition, it can only be used for telling HMRC about changes to personal data. If you are a business and want to tell HMRC about changes for the business you need to take alternative action.
If you are registered to use Self-Assessment Online you can log on to HMRC’s website and update your details there.
Changes to your business details
Unfortunately you have to use an alternative method to the e-mail system described above. It is no more complicated but means that if you are sole trader you have to remember that you may have to use the two different systems. This being a website for help with VAT issues I’ll confine my comments to that, but if you are looking for guidance on how to tell HMRC about changes relating to other taxes visit this page on HMRC’s website.
For VAT if you are registered for VAT Online services you can go to the log in page on HMRC’s website and update your information there.
