The short version: A P11D is a form that reports expenses and benefits you received from your employer on top of your salary. Things like company cars, private health insurance, or interest free loans. These count as taxable income.
Who gets a P11D?
If your employer gave you any taxable benefits or expenses during the tax year, they’ll issue you a P11D. If you didn’t receive any, you won’t get one.
What’s on it?
Details of each benefit or expense, its cash value, and how much tax is due. Common items include company cars and fuel, private medical insurance, gym memberships, and accommodation provided by your employer.
What do you need to do with it?
Keep it for your records. If you file a Self Assessment tax return, you’ll need to include the benefits on it. HMRC uses P11D information to adjust your tax code so the right amount gets collected through PAYE.
When does it arrive?
Employers must issue P11Ds by 6th July following the end of the tax year. So for the 2024/25 tax year, you’d receive it by 6th July 2025.
