Last reviewed 14 October 2026 · How Tax Letters checks its facts

In short

GOV.UK says the SA103F is the full version of the self-employment supplementary page, for people who are self-employed, have more complex tax affairs and had annual business turnover above the VAT threshold for the tax year.

“If you’re self-employed, have more complex tax affairs and your annual business turnover was above the VAT threshold for the tax year, use the full version of the self-employment supplementary page when filing your SA100 tax return.”

What it asks

GOV.UK's tax return forms page says you might need to fill in more sections, known as 'supplementary pages', if you are telling HMRC about certain types of income. It lists the SA103F supplementary pages for self-employment, alongside the SA103S supplementary pages.

“You might need to fill in more sections, known as ‘supplementary pages’, if you’re telling HMRC about these types of income: … self-employment - SA103S supplementary pages or SA103F supplementary pages”
