The HMRC rules

A birthday, a new baby, a colleague back after a hard few weeks. HMRC's trivial benefits exemption lets you mark moments like these tax-free, if every condition is met. Whether a trivial benefits gift card passes the HMRC test comes down to the official tax rules on trivial benefits. The gift must cost £50 or less, must not be cash or a cash voucher, must not reward work or performance, and must not be part of the employee's contract. Directors of close companies have a £300 cap per tax year. Rules can change and depend on the situation, so check the current HMRC guidance. For the wider picture, see our gift card regulations for companies.

Common mistakes

Most slip-ups happen when a small gift quietly turns into something else.

Topping up one card all year. Regular top-ups can start to look like a payment rather than an occasional gift.
Paying staff back. Reimbursing something an employee bought themselves is generally not a trivial benefit, so give the card directly.
Tying the card to results. A card for hitting a target is a reward for performance and does not qualify.
Forgetting the director's cap. The £300 a year for directors of close companies is easy to miss in a team gift.

If you are unsure, check the current HMRC guidance before you order.
