Can my business buy my travel tickets?

[wanstronian]

I'm set up as a limited company, working on a project that's outside IR35.

I'm aware that business travel is a legitimate expense and that I, as an employee of my company, can pay for travel then claim it back.

This seems to be a bit inefficient. Far easier to buy business...

Although my limited company is in the UK, I have long term contracts in France and Belgium. I travel back to the UK to be with my wife and kids every weekend.

My accountant says that the total travelling expenses we accumulate cannot be deducted but for every 1000 pounds...

I'm based in Manchester and have the offer of 2 gigs: One in London, which would mean with accommodation/food/travel leaves me with a day rate of 15% less than what I would normally work for (that's staying away for 3 days of the week, 2 at home). The other is in Liverpool, 30% less than my usual...

My ex-partner will be working abroad for the foreseeable future. He wants to register his business to my home address so that he can claim all of his travel back to the UK (mostly to spend time with our daughter) as business expenses and thus save some money on taxes. I'd like to oblige, but I don't...

Would any travel and subsistence be allowable before/after...

[arghconfused]

I have been working for my client under an umbrella company for a year now and have never claimed back travel expenses.
