What is a uniform tax rebate?
If you wear a uniform or protective clothing at work that you’re responsible for washing and replacing, you may be entitled to a tax rebate from HMRC for the past four years!
It’s believed that 2 in 3 employees who wear a uniform are entitled for a tax rebate.
Who can claim a uniform tax rebate?
- Airline staff / cabin crew / pilots
- Builders / Plumbers / Carpenters
- Engineers and Mechanics
- Hospitality and Catering
- Nurses, Doctors, Dentists and other healthcare workers
- Police Officers
- Public Transport staff
- Retail Staff
- Teachers (P.E. teachers)
- Anyone else who wears uniform to work!
Who doesn’t qualify?
- If you wear your own clothes to work
- If your employer has a dress code (you have to wear a suit, smart attire etc..)
- You have to buy your work clothes from the shop you work in
- Your employer provides a laundry service but you don’t use it
Although some of the above seem unfair, they are all HMRC reasons as to why you do not qualify.
