TTM05340 - The 75% limit on charters-in: If limit exceeded
Exclusion procedure: Appeals
If HMRC excludes a company or group from tonnage tax because it has exceeded the 75% limit, the company or group may appeal against the exclusion notice within 30 days of the date of issue of the notice.
Where a group is appealing, only one appeal may be brought, but it may be brought jointly by two or more members of the group.
A company that disagrees with HMRC’s decision to exclude may appeal to have the decision reviewed internally or by the First-tier Tribunal. If the company seeks an internal review, and does not agree with the decision, it may then appeal to the Tribunal.
The appeal should be delivered to the officer who issued the notice.
The Tribunal has jurisdiction over such appeals, FA00/SCH22/PARA43 (1).
