HMRC Introduces Mandatory Registration for Tax Advisers from May 2026: Key Rules and Exemptions

  • 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.
