Yes. An individual, company or trust can specify the income tax rate at which tax is deducted from the credit interest paid on their savings accounts (including the new 39% top rate of income tax). If you have not told us which tax rate to apply, we will generally apply the default rate of 33% to individuals and trusts and 28% to companies. However we have to apply a tax rate of 45% if we do not have your IRD number (even if you choose a lower rate).
