Does the FTA send reminders before tax deadlines?
Not for general filing deadlines - but if you start an application (like updating your tax registration details) and leave it incomplete, the FTA will send you a reminder to finish it.

The detail
The supplied sources do not show the FTA sending reminders ahead of standard tax return or payment deadlines. They do confirm that for specific portal applications - such as amending taxable person details or reactivating a deactivated Corporate Tax TRN - the FTA issues a reminder to complete a drafted application, and a further reminder to provide additional information, if the applicant does not act within the normal timeframe.12
What the law says
- FTA guidance on the 'Amend Taxable Person Details' process lists a reminder to complete a draft application as one of the standard correspondences sent to the taxpayer.2 Based on FTA guidance
- FTA guidance on registering a deactivated Corporate Tax TRN similarly lists reminders to complete a draft application and to provide additional information as standard correspondences.1 Based on FTA guidance
