Self Assessment registration is the process of telling HMRC that you have income that is not taxed through PAYE — such as self-employment income, rental income, or foreign income. When you register, HMRC creates a Self Assessment record for you and sends you a Unique Taxpayer Reference (UTR) number by post.
Registration is a one-time process. Once registered, you will need to submit a Self Assessment tax return each year to report your income and pay any tax owed — but that is a separate step handled after registration is complete.
Tax2U is fully authorised by HMRC to act as your agent — submitting your Self Assessment registration directly through the HMRC agent portal on your behalf.
Once we submit your registration, HMRC issues your UTR number and posts it to your home address. Your UTR stays the same for life and is needed for every future tax return.
A named Tax2U account manager is assigned to your application. They liaise with HMRC on your behalf and keep you updated at every stage of your registration.
Reach your account manager directly via WhatsApp or phone — no call centres, no hold music. You always know exactly where your registration stands.
Many people confuse the two. This page covers registration only — the one-time process of enrolling with HMRC and receiving your UTR number.
