Webinar – SDLT Registration: Key Issues for Conveyancers – 28 April 2026

New requirements introduced by HMRC mean that many firms will face increased compliance obligations when handling SDLT submissions. Understanding what’s changing—and how it affects your practice—is essential.

What’s changing?
From 18th May, any firm submitting SDLT returns on behalf of clients will be required to register as a tax adviser. This change effectively classifies the submission of an SDLT return as a form of tax advice, bringing additional regulatory expectations for conveyancing firms.

What this means for you
These changes may increase administrative workload, introduce new risk considerations, and require firms to review their current processes and responsibilities.

Whether you’re reviewing your current processes or looking to strengthen compliance, this webinar will equip you with the insights you need to navigate SDLT registration confidently.

Webinar: SDLT Registration: Key Issues for Conveyancers 

Join our webinar host, David Keighley, as he covers:

  • The legislation requiring registration.
  • HMRC registration requirements.
  • Registration as a “Tax Adviser” – What It Means.
  • Outsourcing; key points to consider.
  • Managing risks & expectations.
  • HMRC sanctions.
  • Regulators views.
