Ulez tax refund: reclaiming money from the daily charge
【Summary】Self-employed tradesmen in London who drive vehicles that do not comply with the ultra-low emission zone (Ulez) can potentially claim back the £12.50 daily charge as a business expense on their tax returns. The Ulez scheme is expanding to cover all London boroughs and drivers will be subject to the charge. However, there are exemptions and grace periods available to certain eligible drivers, including disabled people, charities, and small businesses.
London's ultra-low emission zone (Ulez) has caused concern for self-employed tradesmen who drive vehicles that do not comply with the regulations. However, there may be a way for these tradesmen to recoup the money spent on the clean air levy through their tax returns.
The Ulez scheme, introduced by Mayor Sadiq Khan, is expanding to cover all London boroughs starting today. This means that drivers across the city will be subject to a daily charge of £12.50.
Fortunately, tradesmen who are required to pay the Mayor's fee may be able to claim it as a business expense when they submit their annual tax return. This could provide some relief for those impacted by the Ulez regulations.
Since the Ulez scheme was implemented in 2019, a few exemptions and grace periods have been put in place for certain eligible drivers. Disabled people, charities, and small businesses are among those who qualify for these exceptions.
