From 5 August
2024, any request to change your VAT registration details should be made using
the VAT online account, and not by using the VAT484 form or any other postal or
electronic means.
Using the digital route is
quicker, more secure and will avoid any unnecessary delays.
For customers that are unable
to access and use our digital services such as those who are digitally excluded
or need assistance with digital services, HMRC will always provide a service to
meet their needs, continuing to offer support through non-digital channels such
as the phone, which includes our ‘needs extra support’ service.
We know some customers will
still need to apply for a change to their details via post on a VAT484 form if
they are digitally excluded or, for example, notifying us of taking over
someone else’s VAT responsibilities. These customers can contact
HMRC to ask for a form.
Updated guidance will be
available at ‘Change
your VAT registration details‘
from August 2024
