Work-Related Travel Tax Relief
Did you use your own money to travel for work?
You may be able to claim tax relief when your job required qualifying travel and your employer did not reimburse the full eligible cost. This can include travel to temporary workplaces or journeys between work locations.
Travel from home to a permanent workplace is generally ordinary commuting and is not normally eligible.
The details matter. We may ask about your job, normal workplace, destinations, dates, journey purpose, mileage, reimbursements and available supporting records.
Evidence may include:
-
Mileage or journey logs
-
Job sheets, rotas or site records
-
Receipts or travel tickets
-
Employer mileage or expense records
-
Bank or card statements where relevant
Disclaimer: Eligibility depends on the nature of each journey and your employment arrangements. A journey being work-related does not automatically make it allowable for tax relief.
