HMRC Reporting: Important Update for Space Owners
Starting 31st January, we will be reporting all earnings to HMRC in compliance with new laws applicable to online marketplaces, like JustPark.
This does not change your right to earn up to £1000 tax-free each year through our platform.
What’s the Purpose of HMRC Reporting?
The primary aim of HMRC reporting is to ensure transparency about business sellers on online marketplaces. While most JustPark space owners aren’t businesses, you’ll still need to submit your details via our online form to meet the legal requirements.
Who Needs to Submit a Form?
If you have a listing that has received more than one booking, we will need to declare your information to HMRC. Please start by filling out the Tax information form on the Billings & Withdrawals page, found here. Once you have filled this out, we will be in touch with the next steps. This will happen at some point before the end of the year, so don’t worry if you don’t hear from us straight away.
What Information Do I Need to Provide?
To comply with HMRC reporting requirements, you’ll need to provide the following information:
- Full Name
- Country of Residence
- Address
- Date of Birth
- Tax Identification Number (For UK residents, this is your National Insurance Number)
You'll receive an email from us with instructions on how to submit this information.
What If I’m a Business?
If you have listed your space as part of a business, charity or company and therefore do not receive the earnings from the space as an individual, please get in touch with our team at spaces@justpark.com with the following information:
- Business Name
- Business Address
- Company Reg Number
- Tax Ref Number
- Country of Issued Tax Number
We can then ensure your information is submitted successfully to HMRC.
Will this impact the amount of tax I pay?
This does not change your right to earn up to £1000 tax-free each year through our platform. If you have any other questions relating to your tax or earnings, we recommend to get in touch with HMRC directly.
