    Contract Client Expenses

    I would be interested to know the following in respect of expense charges to your clients.

    Do you charge a call out fee.?

    How much do you charge your clients for travel to thier premises per day.?

    How much do you charge your clients per mile if you use your own car to complete tasks for the client.? And do you provide a proof of mileage log.?

    How much do you charge your clients for daily subsistence?

    How much do you charge your client per day for overnight accomodation?

    Do you just charge your clients the exact cost of your expenses?

    Do you have to provide receipts to your agent/client or do you fix a daily rate for any expenses incurred in addition to your contractual rate.?

        Please, and thank you.

        It has come to my attention that some contractors are processing personal expenses directly with clients finance department, rather than invoicing for expenses incurred.

        Your company is losing out on tax relief, and secondly the IR may consider these contractors as being treated as employees.

        Thanks.

              I suspect he'll be offering 'administrative services' next, Santa.

                Sorry I run a genuine business. Factors such as overnight accomodation, travel to premises are factored into the overall quote or the hourly rate. What are expenses?


                Oh those are the things I charge ContractorCo for. Sorry getting too early into the Holiday spirit.

                  If it's a direct contract then you'll have to negotiate. If it's agency then they're probably already worked out already.

                  In my humble experience...
