OT60070 - Transferable Tax History - Corresponding with HMRC by email

When sending information to HMRC, the sender must ensure they not only send all of the information required for this process but they also take appropriate measures to protect their data.

Sending confidential or sensitive information by email carries a number of risks, which could include interception by third parties, transferring malware, unauthorised contact information and data manipulation in transit.

HMRC take the security of your data very seriously, so when sending data via email, please make sure that:

  • you only use the mailboxes or contacts provided by HMRC,
  • the person sending the data is authorised to act on your behalf,
  • you are aware of the risks.
