About this form

THIS FORM IS FOR SEAFARERS WHO HAVE BEEN IN CONTINOUS EMPLOYMENT WITH THE SAME EMPLOYER FOR AT LEAST SIX MONTHS AND HAVE MORE THAN ONE TRIP RECORDED

You are claiming to be provisionally entitled to Seafarers Earnings Deduction (SED) and requesting that your Tax Banding be changed to Zero, enabling you to receive gross pay without any deductions for tax each month.

You have answered YES to the following questions

You are resident in the UK
You are in Pay as You Earn (PAYE) employment
You are a seafarer working on board a vessel accepted as a ‘ship’ for SED purposes
You have been in continuous employment with the same employer for at least 6 months, working on a ship outside the UK

If the employment against which you wish to claim ceases or changes so that SED is no longer due please notify us immediately.

If it later transpires that you were not entitled, then you will be asked to repay any tax underpaid in one lump sum.

You will need to complete a Self Assessment (SA) tax return for each tax year to maintain the status.
