Complete Tax returns Online:
Unless you have been notified by the Income Tax Office that you do not need to complete a return, you are required by law to complete and submit a return to the Director of Income Tax. You may do this in paper format (personal returns are issued in January each year) or you may fulfil your obligation by completing and submitting an electronic return, which is available on the Tax Office website (www.gov.gg/tax). If you submit an electronic return, you will be asked if you require a paper return for future years. Where paper returns are not required, you will be notified by email, each year, when the on-line return is available for completion. Returns should be completed and returned/submitted by 30 November in the year of issue, or within 21 days if the date of issue is after 9 November. An automatic penalty will be imposed if the return has not been received by the due date. Tax is charged at 20% on income less any personal or other allowances due.
If you do not receive a return or notification that the e-form is available for any year but you have income chargeable to tax, IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to obtain and submit a return (the return can be printed from the Tax Office website, or the return can be completed on-line). The Law provides substantial penalties for failure to deliver returns.
If you submit your return electronically, you will be entered into a prize draw, with the chance to win a top prize of £2,500, a second prize of £1,500 or a third prize of £1,000. More information about this draw, including the Terms and Conditions, are available on the Tax Office website
