HMRC has published guidance in its International Exchange of Information Manual on how to fulfil the client notification obligations set out in the International Tax Compliance (Client Notification) Regulations 2016 (SI 2016/899) which came into force on 30 September 2016. These require financial institutions and certain advisers to send prescribed notifications to relevant clients at some point between 30 September 2016 and 31 August 2017. The regulations require a standard covering letter containing links to HMRC guidance to be sent as part of the notification.
We will be publishing a practice note on the regulations shortly.
