8.—(1) Paragraph (2) applies where a person was a promoter in respect of a CRS avoidance arrangement which was implemented on or after 25th June 2018, but before 28th March 2023 irrespective of whether that person provides relevant services in respect of the arrangement on or after 28th March 2023.

(2) Subject to paragraphs (3) and (4), the person must make a return on or before 25th September 2023, setting out the information specified in paragraphs (a) to (c) of Rule 2.3 of the model rules in respect of that arrangement, to the extent the information is within the person’s knowledge, possession or control.

(5) In applying the threshold amount specified in paragraph (3) to a financial account denominated in a currency other than US dollars, the threshold amount specified in paragraph (3) must be translated into the other currency by reference to an appropriate spot rate of exchange for the date immediately prior to the implementation of the CRS avoidance arrangement to which the financial account is subject.

Notification of disclosure

9.—(1) An intermediary or reportable taxpayer who makes a return under regulation 3(2), 7(2) or 8(2) in respect of an arrangement or structure must give written notice of the fact that a return has been made to any person who the intermediary or reportable taxpayer knows or should reasonably be expected to know is an intermediary or reportable taxpayer in relation to that arrangement or structure.

(a) to a penalty not exceeding

(i) £5,000, or

(b) if the failure continues after a penalty is imposed under sub-paragraph (a), to a further penalty or penalties not exceeding £600 for each day on which the failure continues after the day on which the penalty under sub-paragraph (a) was imposed (but excluding any day for which a penalty under this regulation has already been imposed).

(3) For the purposes of this regulation and regulation 15 “relevant considerations” include—

(i) in the case of a penalty for an intermediary’s failure to comply with any obligation, to the amount of any fees received, or likely to have been received, by the intermediary in connection with the CRS avoidance arrangement or opaque offshore structure, and

(ii) in the case of a penalty for a reportable taxpayer’s failure to comply with any obligation, to the amount of advantage gained, or sought to be gained, by the reportable taxpayer in relation to any tax in relation to the CRS avoidance arrangement or opaque offshore structure,

(b) whether the failure giving rise to the penalty was deliberate,

(c) any procedures maintained by the person liable to the penalty to secure the identification of CRS avoidance arrangements or opaque offshore structures and compliance with obligations under these Regulations, and

(d) the reasonably foreseeable consequences of the failure.

(4) In this regulation “the initial period” means the period—

(a) beginning with the relevant day, and

(b) ending on the earlier of—

(i) the day on which the penalty under paragraph (1)(a)(ii) is determined, and

(4) The amount of a penalty under regulation 13(1)(a)(ii) is to be arrived at after taking account of all relevant considerations.

(6) Where it appears to an officer of Revenue and Customs that a penalty under regulation 13(1)(a)(ii) has been determined on the basis that the initial period begins with a day later than that which the officer considers to be the relevant day, an officer of Revenue and Customs may commence proceedings for a re-determination of the penalty.

(7) In addition to any right of appeal on a point of law under section 11(2) of TCEA 2007(9), the person liable to the penalty may appeal to the Upper Tribunal against the determination of a penalty in proceedings under paragraph (1), but not against any decision which falls under section 11(5)(d) and (e) of that Act and was made in connection with the determination of the amount of the penalty.

(8) Section 11(3) and (4) of TCEA 2007 applies to the right of appeal under paragraph (7) as it applies to the right of appeal under section 11(2) of that Act.

(a) if it appears that no penalty has been incurred, set the determination aside,

(b) if the amount determined appears to be appropriate, confirm the determination,

(c) if the amount determined appears to be excessive, reduce it to such other amount (including nil) as the Upper Tribunal considers appropriate, or

(d) if the amount determined appears to be insufficient, increase it to such amount not exceeding the permitted maximum as the Upper Tribunal considers appropriate.

Determination of penalty by HMRC: further daily penalty under regulation 13(1)(b)

16.—(1) An officer of Revenue and Customs may make a determination imposing a penalty under regulation 13(1)(b) and setting it at such amount as, in the opinion of that officer, is correct or appropriate.

(2) Notice of a determination of a penalty under this regulation must be given to the person liable to the penalty and must state the date on which it is issued and the time within which an appeal against the determination may be made.

(3) After the notice of determination under this regulation has been given the determination must not be altered except in accordance with paragraph (4) or on appeal.

(4) If it is discovered by an officer of Revenue and Customs that the amount of a penalty determined under this regulation is or has become insufficient, the officer may make a determination in a further amount so that the penalty is set at the amount which, in the opinion of that officer, is correct or appropriate.

Time limits and treatment of penalties

17.—(1) Proceedings in relation to a penalty under regulation 13(1)(a)(ii) must be commenced, or a determination of a penalty under regulation 13(1)(a)(i) or 13(1)(b) must be made, before the latest of the following dates—

(a) the date 24 months after the date on which the inaccuracy or failure first came to the attention of an officer of Revenue and Customs,

(3) A penalty determined under this Part is to be treated for all purposes as if it were tax charged in an assessment and due and payable.

Appeals against penalty determinations by HMRC

18.—(1) An appeal may be brought against the determination of a penalty under regulation 14 or 16 and, subject to the following provisions of this regulation, the provisions of the Taxes Management Act 1970(10) relating to appeals have effect in relation to an appeal against such a determination as they have effect in relation to an appeal against an assessment to tax, except that references to the tribunal shall be taken to be references to the First-tier Tribunal.

(2) On any such appeal, section 50(6) to (8) of the Taxes Management Act 1970(11) does not apply but the First-tier Tribunal may—

(a) if it appears that no penalty has been incurred, set the determination aside,

(b) if the amount determined appears to be appropriate, confirm the determination,

(c) if the amount determined appears to be excessive, reduce it to such other amount (including nil) as the First-tier Tribunal considers appropriate, or

(d) if the amount determined appears to be insufficient, increase it to such amount not exceeding the permitted maximum as the First-tier Tribunal considers appropriate.

(3) In addition to any right of appeal on a point of law under section 11(2) of TCEA 2007, the person liable to the penalty may appeal to the Upper Tribunal against the amount of the penalty which has been determined under paragraph (2), but not against any decision which falls under section 11(5)(d) and (e) of that Act and was made in connection with the determination of the amount of the penalty.

(4) Section 11(3) and (4) of TCEA 2007 applies to the right of appeal under paragraph (3) as it applies to the right of appeal under section 11(2) of that Act.

(5) On an appeal under this regulation the Upper Tribunal has the same powers as are conferred on the First-tier Tribunal by virtue of this regulation.

Special Reduction

19.—(1) If an officer of Revenue and Customs thinks it right because of special circumstances, the officer may reduce a penalty under this Part.

(2) In paragraph (1), “special circumstances” does not include—

(a) ability to pay, or

(b) the fact that a potential loss of revenue from one taxpayer is balanced by a potential over-payment by another.

(3) In paragraph (1), the reference to reducing a penalty includes a reference to—

(a) staying a penalty, and

(b) agreeing a compromise in relation to proceedings for a penalty.

Matters to be disregarded in relation to liability to penalties

20.—(1) Liability to a penalty under regulation 13 does not arise if the person satisfies an officer of Revenue and Customs or, on a determination by the First-tier Tribunal or an appeal notified to the tribunal, the tribunal that there is a reasonable excuse for a failure to do anything required to be done under these Regulations.

(2) For the purposes of this regulation none of the following is a reasonable excuse—

(a) that there is an insufficiency of funds to do something,

(b) that the person relies on legal advice if—

(i) the advice was given or procured by a person who is an intermediary within Rule 1.3(a) of the model rules in relation to the CRS avoidance arrangement or opaque offshore structure to which the failure relates,

(ii) the advice was not based on a full and accurate description of the facts, or

(iii) the conclusions in the advice that the person relied upon were unreasonable.

(3) In considering whether a person had a reasonable excuse, the officer of Revenue and Customs or the tribunal must consider whether the person maintains such procedures as it is reasonable in all the circumstances to have in place to secure the identification of CRS avoidance arrangements or opaque offshore structures and compliance with obligations under these Regulations.

(4) If a person had a reasonable excuse for a failure but the excuse has ceased, the person is to be treated as having continued to have the excuse if the failure is remedied without unreasonable delay after the excuse ceased.

EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations make provisions implementing the OECD (2018), Model Mandatory Disclosure Rules for CRS Avoidance Arrangements and Opaque Offshore Structures, OECD, Paris. They impose obligations on persons, known as intermediaries or reportable taxpayers, to report information to HM Revenue and Customs (“HMRC”) about certain types of arrangements, known as CRS avoidance arrangements and opaque offshore structures.

Part 1 contains introductory provisions. Regulation 1 provides for citation and commencement. Regulation 2 is an interpretation provision.

Part 2 sets out the reporting obligations and supplementary provisions. Regulation 3 requires intermediaries to make returns. Regulation 4 makes provision as to the deadline for returns by intermediaries. Regulation 5 disapplies the requirement to make a return in relation to privileged information. Regulation 6 disapplies the requirement to make a return in relation to information that has already been reported to HMRC, or to the tax authority of a partner jurisdiction in certain circumstances. Regulation 7 requires reportable taxpayers to make returns in certain circumstances. Regulation 8 requires certain intermediaries to make returns about CRS avoidance arrangements entered into on or after 28th June 2018 and before 28th March 2023. Regulation 9 requires intermediaries and relevant taxpayers who have made a return to notify other intermediaries and relevant taxpayers. Regulation 10 makes provision requiring the use of an electronic return system. Regulation 11 permits an officer of Revenue and Customs to request information to determine whether obligations under these Regulations have been complied with. Regulation 12 provides that employees are not subject to the reporting requirements.

Part 3 makes provision for penalties for breaches of obligations under these Regulations. Regulation 13 makes provision for the penalties. Regulations 14 and 16 provide for penalties to be determined by HMRC. Regulation 15 provides for penalties to be determined by the First-tier Tribunal. Regulation 17 provides time limits within which proceedings for determination of a penalty may be commenced, or a penalty determined by HMRC, and provides that penalties are to be treated as tax charged in an assessment and due and payable. Regulation 18 provides for appeals against penalty determinations by HMRC. Regulation 19 provides for cases where HMRC may reduce a penalty. Regulation 20 provides that no liability to penalties arises where a person has a reasonable excuse for failing to comply with an obligation under the Regulations.

Part 4 (regulation 21) revokes the International Tax Enforcement (Disclosable Arrangements) Regulations 2020 (S.I. 2020/25), the International Tax Enforcement (Coronavirus) (Amendment) Regulations 2020 (S.I. 2020/713) and the International Tax Enforcement (Amendment) (No. 2) (EU Exit) Regulations 2020 (S.I. 2020/1649). These instruments provided a reporting scheme for cross-border arrangements which is being replaced by these Regulations.
