INTM489030 - Transfer pricing guidance: derivation and destination tables: Converting from earlier versions of the transfer pricing guidance

In July 2012, we rewrote and restructured the transfer pricing guidance in this manual (see INTM410510 for more detail about this). As part of this process, the old page numbering system was replaced by a different pagination scheme. These changes mean that references to HMRC’s transfer pricing guidance in other material may direct you to a page which no longer exists. To help readers navigate the new guidance, we provide below the old page numbers and a summary of their content, with an indication of the new page number(s) which now deal with that subject.

We have also indicated the pages where old guidance has been withdrawn without replacement.
