A Time to pay arrangement is only necessary if you cannot pay HMRC by the due date.

Paying HMRC via Bank Transfer

The simplest method of paying your HMRC Self-assessment bill is via a bank transfer.

1. Log on to your online banking

2. Create a payment to a company: HMRC Self-Assessment Cumbernauld

3. Include your UTR number followed by a K as the reference.

Please note if you use Barclays bank to HMRC via this method, you must ensure to capitalise the K in your reference number.

Paying HMRC via Debit Card/Corporate Credit Card

You can also pay HMRC with a debit card or corporate credit card.

Click on this link to access the HMRC Payment portal.

You will need to pay “Self-Assessment”, and the payment reference number is your 10-digit UTR number.

If you would prefer to negotiate a Time to Pay agreement with HMRC, that may allow you to spread the payments over a longer term.

You can only do this online if:

  • You have a Government Gateway account
  • have filed your latest tax return
  • owe less than £30,000
  • are within 60 days of the payment deadline
  • plan to pay your debt off within the next 12 months or less

You can either do this online here: HMRC Time to pay portal.

If you are not able to use the online Time to pay method or would prefer to negotiate a Time to Pay agreement with HMRC over the phone, the contact details are:

Call the Self-Assessment Payment Helpline.
