DOTAS numbers, Regulating Promoters and Protecting Landlords

Following an illustrious career spanning 45 years with previous roles at HMRC, PwC, Pinsent Masons and now with JHA LLP we are delighted to be joined by Ray McCann for this episode, where we discuss regulation of tax advisers and who can call themselves a tax adviser, promoters and DOTAS numbers.

You can listen to the episode here.

Highlights of the episode include:

• What is a DOTAS number and why was DOTAS introduced in 2004
• What is an in-house arrangement
• Roll forward to 2024 and the requirements to disclose promoted schemes
• In the light of Spotlight 63 Property 118 have now obtained a DOTAS number for their protected scheme.  Is this the stamp of approval from HMRC or something far more serious that Landlords need to  be wary of?
• What should you be doing now?
• How we can provide you with a detailed review of your circumstances and provide you with technical and tax advice on putting you back into a regularised tax position.
• How we can engage directly with HMRC on your behalf to reach a final resolution so that you can move on with your business and your life.
• How we can then provide structuring advice for your future.

As always, if you have any questions related to Stamp Duty Land Tax or wider tax and legal questions involved with property transactions, please send us an email to enquiries@bhptax.law and we'll gladly get back to you.
