Do you have to keep all receipts for tax?
It’s good practice to keep all your receipts as proof of purchase, rather than relying on bank statements. You don’t need to submit them with your tax return, but you’ll need adequate records to show to HMRC if asked.
Where should I store my business receipts?
If you’re wondering how to store receipts for business expenses, ANNA is a tad more secure than your desk drawer. Simply snap your receipt on the spot - if you make a purchase with your ANNA debit card, we’ll gently remind you - and we’ll automatically scan it, categorise it and store it for safekeeping.
How long do I need to keep receipts?
Don’t throw your receipts away once you’ve claimed. Limited companies should keep them for six years after the 31 January deadline and sole traders for five years, as HMRC could ask to see them at any time in that period.
Do I need to keep physical receipts?
Your receipts can be scanned and stored electronically - you don’t have to keep paper copies. HMRC is positively encouraging people to keep digital records these days, and it also benefits you as you don’t have to worry about losing your paper receipts.
