Detail of outcome

This document summarises responses and details next steps following the Insurance Premium Tax (IPT) consultation which took place between 5 November 2020 and 5 February 2021.

The IPT consultation was launched to suggest proposals to prevent unfair outcomes and improve the administration of the tax for both the industry and HMRC. There are no legislative policy changes being announced.

HMRC will engage with industry to seek to establish public access to the register of insurers registered to pay IPT, alongside a Code of Conduct for brokers to follow in relation to IPT.

Further updates will follow subject to the outcome of ongoing discussions with industry.
