Can I claim Professional subscriptions as a business expense? Well yes, in certain circumstances, you can. Professional subscriptions such as membership of a trade body, or registrations needed in order to enable you to trade are allowable, provided they are HMRC approved professional bodies which are relevant to your employment. If it is not directly relevant, then it’s not allowed. Membership of your local golf club is not going to be allowed no matter how much you think it may help your business! . . . #businessexpenses #allowableexpenses #ukaccountants #essexaccountant #uktax #accountants #businesssupport #accountingservices #selfemployment #smallbusinessadvice #accountingtips #professionalaccountancy #accountsexperts #businessadviceuk #entrepreneur #smesupport #uktaxadvice
