Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs (HMRC) ISA rules require you to make a declaration, when applying to open an ISA. This is to confirm that you are eligible to subscribe to your ISA.

If you haven't subscribed to your ISA for a whole tax year, then you need to declare your eligibility again and confirm that you haven't paid into another ISA of the same type in the current tax year. You will not be able to make any further deposits into your ISA until a new declaration is made.

You can make your declaration in Internet Banking. Go to 'Old Internet Banking', then 'Account Management' in the menu on the left, then ‘ISA Declaration Management’. Here you will be able to see the status of your ISA and if you need to declare your ISA the status will show as ‘Not declared’ -  you can click on ‘Declare now’ to do this.

We will send a notification within the Triodos Mobile Banking App (in your ‘Feed’) and Internet Banking (in ‘Messages’) if you need to make a new ISA declaration.

If you have a cash ISA and don't have online access to your account, you'll need to complete and return an ISA declaration form to FREEPOST Triodos Bank. Download your Cash ISA declaration form.

Junior ISAs and Fixed Rate Cash ISAs do not need a new declaration to be made after the account is opened.

The Innovative Finance ISA (IFISA) is a type of ISA that allows you to receive the interest you earn on eligible crowdfunded investments tax-free.

Find out more about different types of ISA and how they work on the gov.uk website.

Only certain bond offers will be eligible. Share offers are not eligible for the IFISA. Bond offers that are eligible will be clearly marked on the crowdfunding platform and in the offer document and you will be given the option of investing either directly into the bond or through the IFISA when you apply.

If you have Triodos Internet Banking, you can complete a new declaration online. To do this, please log in to Internet Banking and go back to old Internet Banking via the green ‘Go to old Internet Banking’ button. Select 'Account Management, ISA Declaration Management', from the menu.
