Could I qualify for a tax rebate?

If you earn over £12,570 a year and pay for work expenses that aren't reimbursed, a rebate may be due — including travel, uniforms, tools and training.

If you earn over £12,570 per year, have work-related expenses, and haven't been fully reimbursed for them, then a rebate might be due. This includes business travel, uniforms, tools, professional fees and training.

Two useful rules of thumb:

  • You can claim for up to the last 4 tax years, so even small yearly amounts add up.

  • The more tax you've paid, the more there is to reclaim — earnings very close to £12,570 usually mean a small rebate, because little tax was due in the first place.
