HMRC Confirmation of Residency
A HMRC Confirmation of Residency letter is normally issued with a wet-ink signature from an authorised HMRC officer. When the document is ink signed, it is already eligible for the apostille without any additional solicitor certification. Most orders are completed in 1–2 working days once received.
If your letter has been issued with a digital signature, this must be certified by a solicitor before it can be legalised with the apostille. If you also need a translation or embassy attestation services the processing time will be increased.
When You Need an Apostille for a HMRC Confirmation of Residency:
HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) can produce a certificate confirming that a person is resident in the UK for tax purposes. This is often called a ‘confirmation of residence’ or ‘letter of residency’. This document is often used by an individual that needs to prove they are working in the UK and paying tax as a resident in the UK.
The document is normally signed (in INK) by an HMRC officer. The apostille is added to the original ink signed document.
The format of the certificate can vary slightly but it typically confirms-
- The persons name
- The persons address
- That the person was resident in the UK during a specific period for tax purposes
