What do you use personal data for? (tick everything that applies)

Staff administration only (payroll, HR records for your own employees) Advertising, marketing and PR for your own business only Your own accounts and records only (invoicing, payments) Not-for-profit membership administration only Personal, family, household or recreational purposes only Maintaining a public register required by law Judicial functions only None of the above / we also do other things with personal data (e.g. hold customer or client records, run a website with accounts, use CCTV, employ 3rd-party processors)

Tax deductible. Our service fee is an allowable business expense under UK tax law.

How to deduct it

Our service fee for preparing and filing your order is deductible as a “legal and professional” cost — incurred wholly and exclusively for your trade, the general test for an allowable expense (Corporation Tax Act 2009 s.54 for companies; Income Tax (Trading and Other Income) Act 2005 s.34 for sole traders).

Sole trader (Self Assessment, SA103S): Box 16, “Accountancy, legal and other professional fees.”
Limited company (CT600): no separate box — it's part of your ordinary trading expenses in the profit computation.

The Traffic Commissioner continuation/variation fee and the ICO's annual fee are recurring costs of an already-trading business, so they're generally treated the same way. A brand-new O-licence application/grant fee can be different: HMRC guidance on licences needed before you can start trading (BIM35901) means it may count as capital expenditure rather than a revenue expense. Ask your accountant how to treat that specific fee.

This is general information, not tax advice. Confirm with your accountant — deductibility depends on your specific circumstances.
