Uber & Taxi Drivers β Are You Claiming All Your Allowable Expenses?
As an Uber driver, taxi driver, or private hire driver, you are responsible for submitting an accurate Self Assessment tax return and paying the correct amount of tax. However, many drivers miss out on valuable tax relief simply because they are unaware of the expenses they can claim.
Common allowable expenses include:
β
Uber, Bolt, Ola, and other platform commissions
β
Fuel and charging costs for business journeys
β
Vehicle insurance
β
Vehicle servicing, repairs, and maintenance
β
Car wash and valeting costs
β
Road tax and breakdown cover
β
Mobile phone costs used for business
β
Accountantβs fees
β
Parking fees related to work
β
Interest on vehicle finance agreements
β
Licensing fees and badge renewals
β
Capital allowances on qualifying vehicles and equipment
Claiming the correct expenses can reduce your taxable profit and potentially lower your tax bill.
In addition to claiming allowable expenses, filing your tax return early offers several advantages. You can find out how much tax you owe well in advance, budget accordingly, receive any tax refund sooner, and avoid the stress of the January rush.
Remember, filing your tax return early does not mean paying your tax immediately. You still have until the payment deadline to settle your tax liability.
At TaxNex, we specialise in helping Uber drivers, taxi drivers, and private hire drivers maximise their allowable expenses while staying fully compliant with HMRC requirements.
