Employee Share Schemes (ESS) Online - software and online forms

Internet filing enabled software is available from commercial software suppliers. They can be used to file your ESS forms to us over the Internet. You can choose the product that best suits your needs. We are pleased to accept forms sent using any of the commercial software supplier products listed.

This filing option is available once you have registered with our Online Services.

HMRC has only tested the ability of commercial software supplier products to file valid forms:

34 - SAYE Option Scheme
35 - Company Share Option Plan
39 - Share Incentive Plan
42 - Employment-related securities

The Software products shown in the table below have gained Internet recognition so have proved the ability to file a valid return. To ensure the software product meets your specific needs, please contact the software developer for further details.
