Travel and Subsistence: The 24-month Rule
Posted on 9th July 2016 at 12:00
Contractors in the UK are allowed to claim back travel expenses, so long as these are incurred while travelling to and from a ‘temporary workplace’. A workplace is deemed temporary so long as the contractor is not travelling to the same site for a period of 24 months or longer. Beyond this point, contractors cannot claim back travel expenses. This period is known as the 24 Month Rule and is something all contractors should be aware of.
