- From 18 May 2026, UK tax advisers must register for an HMRC agent services account, unless exempt.
- Exemptions include in-house tax teams, statutory representatives, and those providing free tax advice.
- Registration is required for anyone paid to interact with HMRC on behalf of others, regardless of business size or location.
- The registration process will be online and phased in depending on individual circumstances.
- Existing agent services account holders do not need to re-register but may be contacted for further checks.
