HMRC Confirms £10 Daily Charges for UK Households in June

A £10-a-day HMRC charge can sound like a small penalty at first, but it quickly becomes a serious bill when it repeats day after day. For UK households who have missed a Self Assessment deadline, June can become the month when the cost starts to feel much harder to ignore.

The warning applies to people who needed to send a Self Assessment tax return and failed to file it on time. GOV.UK confirms that late filing penalties begin with an initial £100 charge, then after three months HMRC can add daily penalties of £10 per day, up to a maximum of £900.
