Givver as a Payroll Agent Service in the UK
In the UK, payroll agent services help businesses by handling payroll tasks with HMRC. Givver acts as your authorised payroll agent, meaning we manage payroll tasks directly with HMRC for you. This allows us to get real-time updates, such as changes to employee tax codes or corrections to National Insurance numbers, helping keep your payroll accurate and up to date.
To authorise Givver to act as your payroll agent, we need official approval from HMRC. This involves getting an authorisation code from HMRC, which confirms that we can act on your behalf.
Here’s how the process works:
Request Authorisation: We will ask HMRC to authorise Givver as your payroll agent.
Receive the Code: HMRC will send a letter with an authorisation code to your business address within 7 working days. If you agree to let us act on your behalf, please share this code with us.
Enter the Code: As soon as we get the code from you, we will enter it into the system right away to complete the authorisation. This must be done within 30 days from the date on the letter.
