Hi, I am one of the many people getting the notification to add Tax number details, I do not want to add my personal details as I put all income through my limited company, I have email Demotix about this but haven't received a reply, could someone from Demotix address this urgently please as I have payments due and don't have the time to sort it out later. Thanks, Peter.

Hi Peter as a UK company you should know you are complaining to the wrong people.

It is HMRC that make these rules They REQUIRE Demotix to give them the number otherwise AFAIK Demotix will have to deduct 20% of the money owed to you and pay it to HMRC.

Also you HAVE to give your personal details to some one who is paying you.... does your company pay cash to contractors and employees without keeping a record of who they are, NI and Tax numbers? I think not.

As you have a Ltd company you should know that the UK is up to it's eyes in regulations like this. It is not the fault of Demotix. Also it is going to get worse not better.

Peter, you can upload documents to us proving that you are uploading as a limited company by clicking the "Support Documents" just below the Tax ID field. You can put your company's VAT number or registration number into the Tax ID field.

I really do not want to get into a prolonged discussion about this, it was a simple question to which your response, although appreciated, was not correct.
Payment for images used is made to my company NOT me, they do not require my personal tax information, just the companies details.
