What is a P45 form?
A P45 is an official HMRC document given to you when you leave a job. It contains details of your total earnings and the tax you’ve paid in the current tax year up to your leaving date.
Why do I need a P45?
Three main reasons:
How do I get my P45?
Your employer must give you a P45 after your employment ends. It’s typically provided electronically or in paper format. If you lose it, you cannot get a duplicate from HMRC, but your employer can provide a replacement copy.
What information is on a P45?
Who gets a P45?
Any employee who leaves a job, regardless of whether they start a new one or not.
When don’t I need a P45?
If you’re staying with the same employer or moving to a second job without leaving your first, you won’t get a P45 — you’ll complete a Starter Checklist instead for the new role.
When is a P45 form issued?
It must be given to you on or before your final payday.
Where do I submit my P45?
If you start a new job, give Parts 2 and 3 of your P45 to your new employer. If you’re claiming Jobseeker’s Allowance or other benefits, submit it to Jobcentre Plus.
How do I sign a P45 form online?
You don’t usually “sign” a P45 - it’s generated and signed off by your employer. If you receive a digital version, keep it safe and forward it to your new employer securely.
How long does an employer have to issue a P45 UK?
An employer must provide your P45 on or before your final payday after you leave your job. It can be issued in paper or electronic format.
