Changes are being made to the International Tax Compliance Regulations, SI 2015/878, with effect from 6 April 2016, creating an obligation on financial institutions to tell their clients:
· that HMRC will soon be getting data on overseas financial accounts;
· that there are opportunities to come forward about their overseas tax affairs if they need to; and
· what could happen to those who don’t come forward.
The amendments are made under the power introduced by F(No. 2)A 2015 s 50.
