United Kingdom: P11D / P11D(b) for Benefits-in-Kind Due 6 July 2026

P11D and P11D(b) returns for tax year 2025/26 are due 6 July 2026. Late filing penalty: £100/month per 50 employees. Class 1A NICs on BiKs payable by 22 July (or 19 July by post). Employees must receive their P11D copy by the same 6 July deadline.

Impact

  • Employers must file P11D for each employee who received reportable benefits-in-kind in 2025/26, and the P11D(b) summary report for the employer’s total Class 1A NIC liability, by 6 July 2026. The same deadline applies to providing each employee with their P11D copy. Class 1A NIC at 15% (the 2025/26 rate) is due by 22 July 2026 (electronic) or 19 July (post). Late P11D(b) penalty: £100/month per 50 employees.
  • Note: employers who already payroll their benefits have an exemption from P11D (but still need P11D(b) for Class 1A NIC). The 2026/27 tax year continues with NLW £12.71/hour, day-1 SSP, secondary NIC threshold frozen at £5,000.
