27‑35 Changing the days on which your tax periods end
(1) You may change the day in each year on which a tax period would otherwise end. However: (a) the day must be no more than 7 days earlier or 7 days later than a day on which one of the tax periods that applies to you would otherwise end if the days were not changed; and (b) the change must be consistent with the commercial accounting periods that apply to you. (2) If the day on which a tax period ends is changed, the next tax period starts on the day after that day.
