Common Questions About Tax
Q. Can I claim a tax rebate for washing / laundering my uniform?
A. If you are provided a uniform from your employer which you have to maintain and you are not provided laundering facilities by your employer HMRC will allow a tax rebate claim to be made for the last four tax years.
The definition of a uniform for tax purposes is an item of clothing which is obviously worn for work purposes for example a uniform worn by a Nurse or Doctor.
Items of clothing provided by your employer with logos or company name are acceptable as Uniform.
Protective clothing purchased for work purposes is also permissible without company logos due to the fact that it is purchased for personal safety in the performance of your duties.
Tax relief cannot be claimed for wearing your own clothing or for clothing provided by your employer which does not have a company logo.
HMRC has agreed different amounts of flat rate expenses for the maintenance of uniform, purchase of protective clothing and tools for work use with different industries. HMRC has agreed amounts with the following industries:-
Agriculture, Airlines, Aluminium, Banks and Building Societies, Brass and Copper, Building, Building Materials, Clothing, Constructional Engineering, Electrical and Electricity Supply, Trades ancillary to engineering, Fire Service, Healthcare staff in the National Health Service, private hospitals and nursing homes, Heating, Iron Mining, Iron and Steel, Leather, Particular Engineering, Police Force, Precious Metals, Printing, Prisons, Docks and Inland Waterways, Public Transport, Quarrying, Shipyards, Textiles and Textile Printing, Vehicles, Wood and Furniture.
In addition many industries can claim extra tax relief for professional fees, tools and equipment for work use and use of car for work purposes.
