Before you start
You will need information about your income.
In myIR, go to your income tax account
Then select 'More...'
Select 'Tailored tax application'
This is under 'Manage account'.
Follow the prompts to complete your request
Make sure you select 'Tailored tax rate' as the application type.
Log in to myIR
You can also complete a Tailored tax code or tailored tax rate application - IR23BS form and send this to us.
What happens next
We'll send you a letter and certificate within 10 working days of receiving your application to let you know your tailored tax rate.
Please note that applications made during February and March may take longer than 10 working days.
You need to tell your payer what your tailored tax rate is. Do this by showing them your certificate and giving them a completed Tax rate notification for contractors - IR330C form. You can download the form or get one from your payer.
My responsibilities
You need to reapply for a tailored tax rate every tax year you want one.
We’ll contact you through myIR in time for you to reapply.
