Claim Your Mechanics Tax Rebate
Fields marked with* are compulsory.
If you’re a mechanic, it’s likely that you buy the tools you need for work.
If your employer doesn’t reimburse these costs, then you’re entitled to make a mechanics’ tax rebate claim. You can claim up to 18% of the value of your tools.
We can also help you claim tax relief on the interest part of any finance agreements you have with the likes of MAC or Snap On, tax back for washing your own protective clothing and fees into the Institute of Motoring Industry.

What kind of claim should I make?
These are the two different types of Mechanics Tax Rebate claims you can make – we can help you decide which one to make, so you get everything back you are owed.
Capital Allowances
If you’ve spent more than the tool allowance (£120) during the tax year and have receipts or activity reports to support your claim, then you can submit a capital allowances claim. The amount of tax relief available works out at about 18% of the actual cost of the tools and equipment you purchased. There is no time limit to claim capital allowances as long as the tool is still in use and you can provide proof of purchase.
Tool Allowance
If you spent up to £120 on tools during a tax year and you haven’t got any receipts, this is the correct claim for you. Otherwise known as a ‘flat rate expense’, HMRC has agreed a figure of £120 per tax year for mechanics. This means you can claim back 20% of this amount, about £24 …and we can backdate your claim for 4 years.
Even if your tool allowance is taken into account in your tax code, you can still make a claim for the actual cost as long as you have receipts.
Don’t worry… it’s not as complicated as it sounds. We’re here to help you every step of the way.
What else we can claim for you
It’s not just about getting a tax rebate for tools. As part of our service we ensure you get back everything you are entitled to including:
- Uniform allowance if you wash your own protective clothing. It’s worth £60 per tax year.
- Finance payment tax relief. If you bought Tools or Equipment through a finance agreement we can help you claim relief on the interest payments. With the cost of a tool box being pretty hefty the interest you pay can really rack up, so keep any finance agreements from your MAC or Snap on tool provider.
- IMI tax rebate if you pay for your own membership into the Institute of the Motor industry.
