Deadlines and how it is taxed
The employer files the P11D by 6 July after the tax year and pays Class 1A National Insurance by 22 July. The employee pays income tax on the benefit, usually collected through an adjusted tax code. From April 2027, many benefits move to being reported through payroll instead.
