Tax on trivial benefits
You don바카라 사이트™t have to pay tax on a benefit for your employee if all of the following apply:
- it cost you £50 or less to provide
- it isn바카라 사이트™t cash or a cash voucher
- it isn바카라 사이트™t a reward for their work or performance
- it isn바카라 사이트™t in the terms of their contract
This is known as a 바카라 사이트˜trivial benefit바카라 사이트™. You don바카라 사이트™t need to pay tax or National Insurance or let HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) know.
You have to pay tax on any benefits that don바카라 사이트™t meet all these criteria.
If you바카라 사이트™re not sure whether a benefit counts as a trivial benefit call the employer helpline.
Salary sacrifice arrangements
If you provide trivial benefits as part of a salary sacrifice arrangement they won바카라 사이트™t be exempt. You바카라 사이트™ll need to report on form P11D whichever amount is higher:
- the salary given up
- how much you paid for the trivial benefits
These rules don바카라 사이트™t apply to arrangements made before 6 April 2017 - check when the rules will change.
