How do I submit a P11D form?

The P11D is a tax form that records employment benefits that the employees and directors of a company have received across the year. The information provided enables HMRC to figure out if you're required to pay tax on these benefits.

Each P11D form includes your basic identifying information, along with various sections that cover a range of benefits and expenses-from accommodation, to vouchers, credit cards and mileage allowance.

There's also the P11D(b) form. This form sums up the total amount of taxable benefits that an employer has provided for its employees, and indicates the amount of Class 1A National Insurance due on the expenses and benefits provided. You'll need to submit a P11D(b) form if:

• you've submitted P11D forms
• you've paid your employees' expenses or benefits through your payroll
• you've received a reminder from HMRC
  

Tip: Don't get the P11D mixed up with the P9D form. The latter is submitted when your employees' annual earnings fall below £8,500.

The P11D is a tax form that records benefits in kind that employees and directors of a company have received across the year. The information provided enables HMRC to figure out if you're required to pay tax on these benefits.

You can submit the P11D form via HMRC's PAYE online service, HMRC's Online End of Year Expenses and Benefits service or through a commercial payroll software. If you're unable to use the online methods above, you can also download the forms P11D and P11D(b) and send it to the P11D Support Team via post.
