Regulation 18 Non resident taxpayers: requirement and provision for tax representatives
A person shall cease to be the tax representative for a non-resident taxpayer from the time when—
the non-resident taxpayer ceases to be registered;
the non-resident taxpayer replaces that person with a different tax representative under regulation 15 or 16;
the Commissioners so direct under regulation 17;
the person dies, becomes incapacitated or becomes subject to an insolvency procedure;
the person ceases to be eligible to act as a tax representative;
the person delivers to the Commissioners notification in writing that he withdraws as tax representative for the non-resident taxpayer; or
the non-resident taxpayer delivers to the Commissioners notification in writing that he withdraws an appointment that they permitted but did not require.
A person who is specified in a direction under regulation 17 shall not—
cease to be (or be treated as) the tax representative except in accordance with that regulation; or
be permitted to withdraw under paragraph (1)(f) above.
The name of a tax representative (or a person treated as such) shall be registered against the name of the non-resident taxpayer of whom that person is (or is treated as) the representative (section 24(1) of the Act).
That name shall be deleted from the register if the person ceases to be the tax representative for that non-resident taxpayer and the Commissioners consider it appropriate to do so.
