What you can claim
How hotel tax relief works
If you’ve had to cover your own hotel or B&B costs for work-related travel, HMRC allows you to claim tax back on those expenses, even if it happened years ago.
You’re likely to have a claim if:
- You travelled to temporary job sites or locations for work
- You paid for the hotel, B&B or other accommodation out of your own pocket
- Your employer didn’t reimburse you in full
