Self assessment tax return is a system which HMRC uses to collect income tax and capital gains from individuals. In other words, you tell HMRC how much your taxable income and gains for the tax year by completing self assessment tax return
You must submit a self assessment tax return if HMRC has requested to do by sending you a notice to file the tax return. If you believe you are not required to file the return, you must get the notice cancelled with HMRC.
HMRC has provided a tool which may help you to check if you are required to submit a self assessment tax return
Important dates and deadlines
The period for which you are required to submit a self assessment tax return is called Tax Year in the UK, and it starts on 6 April and ends on the following 5 April.
For example, the tax year 2023/24 starts on 6 April 2023 and ends on 5 April 2024. Few other examples are below:
Tax Year | Relevant Tax Return Period |
---|---|
2023/24 | 6 April 2023 to 5 April 2024 |
2022/23 | 6 April 2022 to 5 April 2023 |
2021/22 | 6 April 2021 to 5 April 2022 |
2020/21 | 6 April 2020 to 5 April 2021 |
The deadline to submit a self assessment tax return for a tax year is 31 January following the end of the tax year. For example, the tax year 2020/21 ends on 5 April 2021 and the following 31 January after the end of the tax year is 31 January 2022. Therefore the deadline to submit a tax return for the tax year 2020/21 is 31 January 2022. Please find below few examples for your understanding:
Tax Year | Relevant Tax Return Period | Deadline |
---|---|---|
2023/24 | 6 April 2023 to 5 April 2024 | 31 January 2025 |
2022/23 | 6 April 2022 to 5 April 2023 | 31 January 2024 |
2021/22 | 6 April 2021 to 5 April 2022 | 31 January 2023 |
2020/21 | 6 April 2020 to 5 April 2021 | 31 January 2022 |
