In this episode, we explore whether fines and penalties can ever be claimed as a business expense and where directors need to be careful. Using real-world examples such as parking tickets in company vehicles, we explain the tax rules, what HMRC allows, and the common mistakes businesses make when recording these costs.

We also discuss the responsibilities of directors when dealing with company expenses, the difference between allowable and disallowable costs, and the potential consequences of getting it wrong. A practical and easy-to-follow episode for business owners and company directors looking to stay compliant while understanding the rules around business expenses.
