Paying Personal Self Assessment Tax

Author: Jon Baggot

The easiest way to pay your tax bill is by faster payment transfer using your online banking service.

If you have had a bill from HMRC this will tell you which bank account to use when making payment. If you are not sure which account to use then go with HMRC Cumbernauld.

Account details to use are:

Sort code: 08 32 10
Account number: 12001039
Account name: HMRC Cumbernauld

or;

Sort code: 08 32 10
Account number: 12001020
Account name: HMRC Shipley

You’ll need to use your 11-character payment reference when you pay. This is made up of your 10-digit Unique Taxpayer Reference (UTR) followed by the letter ‘K’. You can find this on your Electronic Self Assessment Tax Return (middle of page 1).
