You can withdraw funds from your cash account, but you must withdraw funds to a bank account that is registered to the owner of the cash account.

Request a withdrawal

To request a withdrawal you’ll need to fill out a CDSCAW1 and return it to:

HM Revenue & Customs
Customs Salford
5th floor
Three New Bailey
New Bailey Street
Salford
M3 5FS

Withdrawal checks

To make sure the funds are only paid to the cash account owner, HMRC will check the:

  • cash account name
  • Economic Operators Registration and Identification (EORI) number
  • company name
  • requester

How long it takes

We aim to process all UK requests within 5 working days. Your funds will be in your bank account within 7 to 10 working days following processing.
