Employer PAYE payment deadline falls on Sunday 22 November

HMRC has reminded employers that the November 2026 electronic PAYE payment deadline falls on Sunday 22 November 2026, so cleared funds should reach HMRC by 20 November 2026. If you run payroll, we can help you set up payments in good time.

What this means for you

Sole traders

If you employ anyone, even one person, make your PAYE payment so it has cleared in HMRC's account by 20 November 2026, unless you pay by a faster method.

Limited companies

Because 22 November falls on a Sunday, send payment early so it has cleared by 20 November 2026. Late payments can bring penalties and interest, so ask us if you need help with the process.

In Scotland

PAYE deadlines are the same in Scotland. Scottish income tax rates only change the amount deducted from employees' pay, not when it is due.
