I will be submitting a self-assessment for the first time, for the current (2024/25) tax year, having retired in Feb 2024. Much of the discussion at UTR application process online pertains to either the 2022/23 or 2023/24 Tax Years. My query is the timescale on which I should apply for a UTR, thinking ahead to the submission of my self-assessment after the current tax year ends in Apr 2025... should I request a UTR now, or should I wait until after the tax year ends on April 5, 2025? Sorry if this is a daft query ...

Hi,
You can apply for a UTR now, but the deadline for registering to complete a 2024 to 2025 Tax Return is 5 October 20205. You can see guidance here:
