Silly Question - Changing details with HMRC

[JamesL456]

When I registered as self-employed with HMRC, I supplied them with a trading name for my business. Since then, I have slightly changed my trading name.

I've logged in to my account online and cannot find anywhere to update/change this - does it matter? Or is the trading name not all that relevant?

Thanks

Hmrc online filing will ask you for the trade name(s) when you file your return.

Plus commercial software used by accountants will do the same if you decide to go that route

If you can't wait, well, you can call the website helpline

Thanks for the reply.

If when I come to filing my return, I use the new trading name, will HMRC be pernickety about it not matching the one used in my registration? If not, I guess I need do nothing.
