Morning all

Just wanted some confirmation on something,

I have a Ltd Co client where one of the Directors is also a Director of another Co (different accountants), am I correct in saying that he will be entitled to the £150 per head for himself and a partner from both Companies for annual events (xmas parties etc) but if there are no other employees present then VAT is blocked and cannot be claimed?

Also he is allowed the £300 total of trivial benefits from each Company as well.

Just wanted to make sure my thinking is correct

Thanks

Hi Doug

As far as I can tell the trivial benefits/annual staff allowance relate to an individual company so can see no reason why they can't be claimed per company.

Can't comment on the VAT q but I'm sure Joanne will know.

Thoughts are my own/not to be regarded as official advice,which should be sought from a suitably qualified Accountant.

You should check out answers with reference to the legal position
