Yes — most UK employees who pay for their own work expenses (uniform, tools, work mileage or professional fees) are due a tax rebate, and you can backdate a claim up to 4 tax years.

You may be owed money if: your employer doesn't reimburse your work costs; you've had more than one job in a tax year or were unemployed for part of it; or you're a higher-rate taxpayer who's made personal pension or charitable contributions.

These expenses range from work travel to the purchase and upkeep of a uniform. Working out whether you qualify can be complex — TaxPro's team guides you through it and makes sure you claim everything you're entitled to. Don't let what's rightfully yours go unclaimed.
