Billable expenses - VAT Return

[Bluebird]

... surely mileage is exclusive of VAT as the supplier (employee) is not VAT registered and therefore should not be included in the FRS calc?

You're not "billing" milage, you're billing an amount which are part&parcel of the terms of your service agreement which is VATable.

The fact that the amount you charge the client for expenses covers milage is neither here nor there.
It could be for hookers or drugs, as long as the client is happy that they are expenses and they will pay for them under the terms of your contract, then they are VATable.

not sure I understand why you want to charge them 45p, you can charge them what you like as long as they agree to pay it.

However, as an employee of your own company you can only claim tax relief at the rate of 40p per mile...
