HMRC publishes guidance on approach to tax disputes

printer Mail

HMRC has published new guidance on its internal procedures for deciding how tax disputes should be resolved, depending on the particular circumstances of a dispute and how much tax is at stake:

  • Code of Governance for Resolving Tax Disputes: this updated document outlines HMRC’s approach to resolving tax disputes, including the department’s litigation and settlement strategy and alternative dispute resolution.
  • Tax Disputes Resolution Board remit: this explains the role of the TDRB. Broadly, the TDRB advises on cases where the total tax at stake is at least £100m or where the case is sensitive.
  •   Customer Compliance Group Disputes Resolution Board remit: the CCGDRB advises on cases outside the remit of the TDRB, generally where the tax at stake exceeds £5m (or £15m in cases involving large businesses).

HMRC has also updated its tax dispute resolution collection of guidance.
