IME as a perm (and many companies with lots of t&e) your expenses are covered by the company and they decide the policy for the expenses you can claim.
Sometimes it's less than HMRC lets you have tax-free (ie ppm).
The company then sets those expenses against it's gross income as per the tax policy of the relevant country they're operating in - never seen it impact the employee.

Actually the real answer is "Ask your line manager". It's not your decision any more, it's company policy.
Or to put it another way, if you were subject to the same rules as a contractor, you would be inside IR35 by several miles so wouldn't be able to claim expenses anyway. So I have no idea why you are even asking.

Should you spend >40% of your time at another location (say, you do two days a week in Leeds when your base is London) then, once you know that arrangement will be in place for at least 24 months (even if you've only been doing the travel for 18 months to date), you will no longer be able to claim tax relief on the expenses and they will become a BIK.
Travel from home to your designated permanent office is not claimable.
It works exactly the same as it does for contractors except we claim our homes are our designated office in order to claim t&s expenditure.

If a workplace is considered permanent then there is no 24 month rule as this only applies for temporary workplaces.
If you're a full time employee then is very likely your employees office will be a permanent workplace. If they have multiple bases then it depends.Last edited by TheCyclingProgrammer; 21 December 2016, 22:20.

You pay them, claim back from your employer. Employer generally has a dispensation to avoid having to declare them on your P11D (if they are big enough).
If the employer isn't repaying you then look for another employer.

What travel expenses will you have? Why won't your client pay them?
If you are talking 24 month rule then it's if you expect to be there 2 years. As a perm thats a good expectation so you are caught already no?
Mentioned in here.

24 month rule as a perm
Right here's one for ya, if I was to go perm with my current client (carrot is being dangled) how would I go about claiming travel expenses against tax for the 1st 2 yrs, is it an end of year thing? Seems as contractors we do this all the time but I've never heard of a permie actually doing this...Tags: None
