I didn't receive the notification letter about UTR, my accountant requested it online to be sent to the registration address but still I didn't receive it after 14 working days. can somebody help please? FYI, the company is a BVI company. many thanks. kind regards

Hi,
 
If you are having difficulties obtaining your company UTR you can request a copy of this by using our CT online service.

Please see our web page:

Find your UTR number

which provides a link to request a UTR .

Thank you.

hi HMRC Admin 17, thank you for your reply. my accountant did use the link to request the UTR to be sent to the company registered office in BVI. She requested twice however I receive neither of them. do I still need to send in any form to register UTR or do I need talk to anyone to acquire the number please? thanks and kind regards

Hi,
 
If you have registered your overseas company with Companies House, a tax record will be set up automatically, and
the UTR number will be sent to the registered address.

See    https://www.gov.uk/register-as-an-overseas-company     for more information   .

If you have not received your UTR number, you can request it online at

www.gov.uk/find-utr-number or

by writing to Corporation Tax Services,    
                      HM Revenue and Customs,
                       BX9 1AX.

If your company does not need to register with Companies House, you will need to write to us so that we can manually set up a tax record.
You will need to tell us:

• The company’s name and registration number.
• The company’s registered address.
• The date the company started trading, and the date to which you prepare your accounts.
• If the company has taken over another business, the name and address of that former business, and the name and
address of the person from whom you received it.
• If part of a group, the name and address of its parent company.
• Why your company does not need to register with Companies House.

Please address your letter to Business Tax & Customs,
                                              BX9 1AX  .


Thank you .
