FBT and UK Taxes

Postby Jackie769 » Sat May 27, 2017 2:45 pm

Hi Guys

My company are looking to second me from Australia to the UK for a period of time - we are currently trying to determine for how long.

If the company were to provide me with accommodation, health insurance do they have to pay FBT on these benefits? Would the amount they pay differ if I were deemed to be a UK tax resident vs an Australian tax resident?

What is the UK FBT rate?

Cheers

Jackie

In the UK, the costs of attending a temporary workplace will be an allowable expense. Your accommodation and subsistence expenses can be paid for you or reimbursed to you without tax consequences.

Health insurance would remain a taxable benefit.
