EM6231 | Contract settlements: expected offer: means - taxpayer abroad

The guidance about contract settlements at EM6000+ only relates to direct tax. You must never include VAT or VAT penalties in a contract settlement.

Where a customer has

  • permanently left the UK, and

  • taken all their assets with them

it is not HMRC's policy to accept a materially sub-standard offer merely because of the potential difficulties of collecting debts.

This would give the customer a clearance to return to the UK with impunity.
