PAYE Umbrella Service: Travel Expenses

Travel expenses

Rail, bus, taxi and air travel to and from your home and your place of work — receipts are required.

Parking charges including parking meters up to £5 per day.

Accommodation and breakfast costs — receipts are required in London up to £95 per night and elsewhere up to £75 per night.

In addition to accommodation and breakfast costs, you may also claim a further £5 per night to cover personal; incidental expenses without receipts.

When claiming accommodation rental costs, your rental agreement must meet the Inland Revenue Dual Purpose rules. These state that the property concerned must just be let for the working week and not for non-working days (i.e. weekends). If the rental receipt clearly states it is just for the days you have worked then it will be allowable.

Charges will be audited to ensure that the charges match working days and personal travel must not be claimed for — receipts are required.
