Revenue and Customs: Forms

Asked by Sarah RussellLabourTreasuryTabled Answered 16 June 2026UIN 7931

The question

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether all HMRC forms are available in paper form on request.

Answered by Dan Tomlinson

HMRC remains committed to its digital‑first strategy. As part of this, it is delivering a programme to move at least 75% of communications currently issued by paper to digital channels in the current spending review period.

However, HMRC recognises that not all customers will choose to engage digitally on every occasion. Providing viable alternatives, that may in some cases be through paper forms, is a key part of the digital-first strategy.

HMRC will keep the provision of those alternatives under review on an ongoing basis to reflect customer need and customer feedback.
