Essentially you do not need to register with the Government or pay duty if you make less than this amount per year. http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/briefs/excise-duty/brief4307.htm Post Extras:       rubberduck regular Reged: 01/11/2006 Posts: 1598 Loc: essex Re: No duty on self made biodiesel [Re: adrianm]       #1508221 - 07/07/2007 10:42 Edit   Reply   Quote   Quick Reply   So I'm going to be an exempt producer then.

You must get it right though, go on a bio making course or similar.
