The Barclays file gateway will be undergoing maintenance on Saturday 5th July between 08:30 and 12:30 which will mean statements are delayed.
HMRC have also advised that due to maintenance on Barclays payment processing system Faster payments will be affected on Sunday 6th July between 00:00 and 05:00.
As Faster payment is the only scheme which would normally process over the weekend, there is no alternative during the maintenance period. HMRC recommends paying into your CDS Cash account or Duty Deferment account in advance of the delays to ensure you have sufficient balance.
If there are insufficient funds available, declarations will be held pending release or clearance until after the maintenance when Faster payment can be made.
The alternative for Immediate Payment would be via the Online Payment Service using a corporate credit or debit card.
Regardless of the Immediate Payment MOP codes used on the declaration, payment can be made by any supported route.
In either of the above scenarios declarations will not be rejected.
