ONSCG4500 - Handling applications upon receipt: commercially sensitive clearances

Where a Non-statutory Clearance application will contain commercially sensitive information, customers may contact HMRC in advance of making the application to discuss the most appropriate method of submission.

Customers whose affairs are dealt with by Large Business (LB) will be directed to their Client Relationship Manager. In all other cases customers should contact the Non-statutory Clearance Team.

The Non-statutory Clearance team will decide appropriate handling on a case by case basis and contact the relevant business unit or LC team leader as necessary.
