From 10 November 2025 HMRC changed its sign-in page to add an additional option, GOV.UK One login, which now sits alongside the existing Government Gateway. This is part of HMRC’s preparations for moving to the GOV.UK One login, a secure, modern sign-in system that will eventually replace the Government Gateway. HMRC has not given a precise date for when this is expected to happen although a limited public launch is expected in early 2026.
It should be noted that despite HMRC’s sign-in page displaying this, taxpayers are unable to create a GOV.UK One Login at this point nor can they sign in to HMRC using an existing GOV.UK One login created for a different government service. This option has only been added to allow HMRC to prepare for the move by testing the new screen and observing behaviour.
Taxpayers should continue to sign-in to HMRC’s services with their Government Gateway sign-in details like they normally do. If they attempt to sign in with a GOV.UK One login, they will be redirected to the Government Gateway sign-in page.
More information on GOV.UK One login and the sign-in options is available here: Accessing HMRC online services using GOV.UK One Login.
