Heading to the Slimming World Awards or Oscars conference? You can claim a number of expenses as a result, as this is a conference under HMRC guidance, and you’re there on business purposes with the aim (or motivation) to increase/develop your business.
Usually the conference will provide insight, engagement and networking opportunities – along with promotional and marketing tools.
Ticket Prices
The cost of the ticket to the conference is claimable and is classed as a standard expense. Tickets for any event which is ‘recognised as a true business expense’ is permitted by HMRC.
So a conference about weight loss, business development in the UK etc would be acceptable to claim. However a conference in Australia about something completely different may cause concern.
