Section 101 applies late payment interest to any sum due by virtue of an enactment to His Majesty’s Revenue and Customs but paid late.

The current applicable rate in respect of late payment interest is set out in the Taxes and Duties, etc (Interest Rate) Regulations 2011 (S.I. 2011/2446, as amended by the Taxes and Duties, etc (Interest Rate) (Amendment) Regulations 2025 (S.I. 2025/386)).
