Are you reclaiming VAT on fuel?

If you are reimbursing your staff, who use their own vehicle and pay for their mileage at the HMRC approved rate, then you can claim back on the VAT applicable to the deemed fuel element. It is important to ensure that your staff submit their fuel expenses in the form of a valid VAT receipt in support of the claim. Consider using apps such as QuickBooks online to capture these receipts.
