Self-Employed

If you are self-employed, working as a sole trader or partnership, you are able to offset your work-related expenses against your profits when you complete your tax return. Our series of helpful information guides will help you navigate some of the more complex HMRC regulations surrounding Self Assessment for the self-employed.

What am I entitled to claim back?

If you are self employed as a sole trader or in a partnership, you are able to include all of your business and work-related expenses in your tax return to offset against your earnings – however, those expenses must be solely incurred in the pursuit of your business. Unfortunately you cannot claim for expenses which have a personal element.

What information will I need?

In order to satisfy HMRC requirements, it is vital that you keep full and accurate business records and this means keeping any and all information that HMRC may require to support any expenses you are claiming in your self-employment tax return.
