HMRC Disclosure Facilities
HMRC Disclosure Facilities
HMRC is placing an increasing focus on tax transparency, making compliance more critical than ever.
There are, currently, three main disclosure facilities:
- Worldwide Disclosure Facility (WDF) – Covers disclosures relating to income and capital gains on offshore sources.
- Research and Development Disclosure Service (R&D DS) – Used when an excessive research and development tax relief claim has been made.
- Let Property Campaign (LPC) – For landlords who have undeclared rental income or property disposals.
In addition to these, HMRC has various other processes available for taxpayers to regularise their tax affairs. While the terms of these facilities are often similar, none of the current options provide immunity from a criminal investigation by HMRC. The only process that provides such immunity is the Contractual Disclosure Facility.
