UTR Number
Working with us ensures that you’ll have everything in place to manage your financial affairs smoothly. HMRC will also use your UTR (Unique Taxpayer Reference) to identify you as a self-employed taxpayer. If you’re earning income that isn’t taxed at source through an employer (under PAYE), it’s crucial to register as self-employed with HMRC and obtain a UTR.
At Vtrahe, we can support you in staying compliant. If HMRC discovers that you’re operating as self-employed without proper registration, you could face significant fines or even criminal prosecution. Submitting your self-assessment tax return without a valid UTR can result in rejection and penalties for missing the deadline. Additionally, business partnerships require both a UTR for the firm and individual UTRs for each partner to file returns online successfully.
Companies have UTRs as well as individuals. The company Unique Taxpayer Reference (UTR) will have been issued by HMRC when the company was set up and registered.
Your company’s UTR will be included in the first letter you receive from HMRC at your registered office. It will be printed next to a heading like ‘UTR’, ‘Tax reference’, ‘Official Use’ or ‘Reference’. HMRC will use the UTR to identify your company whenever you contact them about tax.
When Vtrahe is done with your paperwork your company number will be officially known as a Company Registration Number (CRN). It is issued by Companies House immediately upon incorporation. It is unique to your company and is displayed on your certificate of incorporation. We will provide you with this number which you must provide this number whenever you contact Companies House. Therefore count on Vtrahe to get you where you are going safely, and reliably.
