Company Credit Card or not.

Originally posted by dynamicsaxcontractor View PostI tried to find out what kind of credit limits people are having in their company credit cards. As mine is too low I have to put my exes on my personal card, and I prefer to not put it on the company debot card for various reasons.
Also in lots of larger companies it's common not to give employees company cards. They use their own personal cards for expenses, and get reimbursed which can cause problems when they rack up a massive bill or their employer delays paying them."You’re just a bad memory who doesn’t know when to go away" JRComment

If so no need to go on the P11D."You’re just a bad memory who doesn’t know when to go away" JRComment

Ditto for accommodation.
Doesn't matter whether the expense is incurred on company credit card or not (what this thread is about after all). In fact I'm still trying to understand where the relevance of P11D comes in wrt company credit card assuming we're only talking legit business expenses.

Your employee uses a card you’ve provided to make a business purchase. They have your prior authority for the purchase and when making the purchase they make it clear that they are acting on behalf of your business. For a purchase to be clearly on your business’s behalf, both the following must apply:
- your employee must explain in advance that the purchase is on your behalf
- the supplier must accept that the purchase is on your behalf
What to report, what to pay
Unless one of the exceptions referred to below applies, you have:
no reporting requirements
no tax or NICs to pay
HM Revenue & Customs: Credit, debit and charge cards
The exceptions it refers to are when the employee doesn't have prior permission, and when it's not clearly on behalf of the company. As long as the card is used only for business then there's nothing to report.
Taking the example of purchasing a rail ticket at the station using company card for business travel,
1. Do i need to explain to the person at the window that the purchase is on behalf of the company, and
2. She/he should accept that the purchase is for the company
for it to be clearly on behalf of the business
Also, what happens if the purchase is online? Pls advise.Comment

However if you are requested to answer a "random" survey about your journey by the train operating company you need to clearly state your journey is for business purposes.
I've had to do these random surveys and they aren't anonymous as you have to put your postcode in. Depending where you live your postcode and other information you provide can easily identify you.
Likewise if you buy something and are asked what it's for you clearly need to say it's for a business purposes. Online if a company name is requested in the address field then you need to put it in."You’re just a bad memory who doesn’t know when to go away" JRComment
