  • Are you expected to wear a uniform at work?

    Do you wear something that is “discernibly a uniform”. This means, would a member of the general public recognise you as wearing a uniform, or would they think you were wearing your own clothes?
    If you are required to wear clothing branded by your employer, with logos, the company name etc, this would also be considered a uniform. A plain polo shirt could become a uniform if it had corporate logos!

What isn’t a uniform for tax purposes?

You can’t claim tax relief for wearing your own clothes, or if your employer provides you with clothes you could wear outside of work. If your employer provides you with a colour coded shirt or a business suit you can’t claim tax relief for this either, unless it has corporate branding or logos displayed on the outside. These must be visible, a detachable badge would not turn ordinary clothing into a uniform.

Is it possible that I am already receiving this tax relief?

Some employers have worked with the tax authorities to obtain these reliefs for certain employees, however most have not. It’s your responsibility to request tax relief where it’s due. If you request the tax relief and you are already receiving it, you won’t be defrauding the tax authorities, they will confirm this in writing. If you use our service and this happens, we won't charge you anything.
