HMRC allows a company to claim £150 per employee in tax relief for a christmas party or meal. As this is unlikely this year HMRC also allows a £50 gift for tax purposes per employee. Gifts to clients do not obtain tax relief.
Spring Budget 2024 – please read on for the main points of note.
If your 2023 tax is not paid by 1st March 2024 there is a 5% penalty based on the outstanding tax amount, if not paid by 1st August 2024 then another 5% penalty and if still unpaid by 1st Feb 2025 yet another 5%.
Remember to pay your balancing personal tax payment for 2023 plus your first account payment for 2024 by 31st January 2024. You can pay this by going to www.hmrc.gov.uk/pay-self-assessment-tax-bill
