When it comes to what you can claim against your taxes, HMRC have a general rule. As long as your purchase is wholly and exclusively for the purpose of running your business, then you can deduct it against your taxable income. So when you go out and buy something, you need to think "Am I buying this just to run my business?" If the answer is yes, it is more than likely that you can deduct it for tax purposes So remember, wholly and exclusively.
