If You Wear A Uniform Or Protective Clothing To Work, You May Be Eligible To Apply For A Tax Rebate.

All the following must apply:

– You wear a recognisable uniform that shows you’ve got a certain job, like a branded T-shirt, air stewardess or police uniform.

– Your employer requires you to wear it while you’re working.

– You must clean & maintain it yourself.

– You paid income tax in the year(s) you are claiming for.

How much can I claim back for my uniform tax rebate?

The total amount an employee can claim back depends on their occupation. The amounts vary with some jobs at the top end, such as air line pilots, HMRC allow up to £1022 per year. The standard rebate (flat rate) for most UK employees who claim for their current year & the previous 4 years (as permitted by HMRC) is £108 , this consists of £48 in a backdated payment and £60 added to the employees tax account as a credit for the current tax year. We find that the average value of a Uniform Tax Rebate claim is £120
