  • RE: Can I claim for installation costs for an EV charger for a company vehicle

    As a basic rate taxpayer working on PAYE, you generally cannot claim the cost of installing a home EV charger as a tax deduction. While your company reimburses you for business miles and charging costs for the company vehicle, the installation expense is considered a personal cost. You should keep detailed records of any business-related charging expenses for reimbursement from your employer, but the installation costs, which include digging up the road, are not deductible against your personal tax bill. Additionally, you might check for any government grants or incentives that could apply, though these are often for future expenses rather than past costs. [link removed]
