BACS Direct Credit, Internet and Telephone Banking
This page tells you about
Making Payment
All banks and building societies that offer Internet and Telephone banking can accept payments of Stamp Duty and Land Tax.
These payment methods enable you to tell your bank to make a payment on a specific date. You therefore know for certain on which day payment will reach us.
It normally takes three bank working days for payment to reach us. Some banks or building societies take longer. You should check with your bank or building society to see how long they take to transfer payment and what their cut off time is for initiating a payment is.
For interest purposes we will treat your payment as having been made the working day before we receive it.
Bank Account Details
When using these electronic systems you will need to provide your bank or building society with our bank account details. These are
| Accounting & Payment Service | Sort Code | Account Number | Account Name |
| Accounts Office Shipley | 10 50 41 | 23456000 | AO Shipley |
Reference Number
You will also need to provide your payment reference number. The reference number is made up of 11 characters, for example 123456789MC and can be found on your Stamp Duty and Land Tax return. It is important that you show the reference number with no gaps between the characters. If you leave gaps, it could lead to delays in updating your record.
