HMRC Payment Deadlines

In order to avoid penalties and interest, it is important to make sure you pay HMRC on time for tax, employee and employer national insurance and student loan deductions.

Here is a note of each quarter’s payment and payment deadlines:

 

Quarter                       Period for                                  Payment Date

Quarter 1                     6^th April to 5^th July                       22^nd July

Quarter 2                     6^th July to 5^th October                 22^nd October

Quarter 3                     6^th October to 5^th January           22^nd January

Quarter 4                     6^th January to 5^th April                 22^nd April

 

If your PAYE exceeds over £1,500 a month, you will have to pay HMRC monthly instead of quarterly.

The best way to pay them is directly via their website, you will get a confirmation email from them stating all the transaction details in case there was ever a dispute of payments- https://www.tax.service.gov.uk/pay-online/epaye
