The new 2018/19 edition of the book will go to the printers shortly, and should be available at the end of April.
+
:109 [[Third Party Relief/Savings Clause]]
  
On Thursday 5 April work will begin to update the online text to the text of the 2018/19 edition of the book. While this work is in progress, chapters which have/have not been updated will be clearly marked.

To order copies of the new edition, and online licences for 2018/19 [mailto:[email protected]?Subject=TFD%20enquiry contact the publishers].
+
:111 [[Credit for Foreign Tax]]
  
There is a special arrangement for holders of licences for the 2017/18 edition.  The useful life of the licence was cut short this year, because the new Finance Bill timetable brought this year's Finance Bill forward from July to March.  Accordingly holders of 2017/18 licences will qualify for a discount when purchasing licences for the 2018/19 edition of TFD online.  The discount will be 50% of the cost of the 2017/18 licences.
+
:112 [[Non-discrimination]]
  
Once the updating to 2018/19 online edition is complete, holders of old (2017/18) licences will still have online access to the 2017/18 text of TFD, until the end of August. But they will not have access to the 2018/19 edition.  For that you will need a new 2018/19 licence.
