UK First-tier Tribunal (Tax Chamber)

The UK First-tier Tribunal (Tax Chamber) is a specialized court that handles disputes between taxpayers and HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC). If individuals or businesses disagree with HMRC's decisions on tax matters—like tax assessments or penalties—they can appeal to this tribunal. It offers a fair forum to resolve these issues, with judges experienced in tax law. The process is less formal than a traditional court and aims to ensure that taxpayers are treated fairly under the law. This tribunal plays a crucial role in upholding taxpayer rights while ensuring compliance with tax regulations.
