Approve a payment through your online bank account

You can pay your Self Assessment bill directly using your online or mobile bank account.

When you’re ready to pay, start your Self Assessment payment.

Select the ‘pay by bank account’ option. You’ll then be directed to sign in to your online or mobile banking account to approve a payment to ‘HMRC Shipley’.

The payment is usually instant but sometimes it takes up to 2 hours to show in your account.

You can select a date to pay, as long as it’s before your payment is due.

Check your account to make sure that the payment has gone out on the correct day. If the payment has not gone out as expected, speak to your bank.

You’ll need to have your online banking details ready to pay this way.
