Expenses when travelling overseas

November 25, 2010

When you or your employees travel abroad on business, processing the resulting expense claims can be a real pain. Too ease this problem you can use the HMRC approved scale rates to reimburse costs of accommodation, meals, and local travel, which have been set for most countries and regions. If you pay expenses at or below these scale rates, the amounts paid are free of tax and NICs, and don’t have to be included on the employees’ forms P11D.
