Understanding your tax responsibilities as a driver
are Uber & Deliveroo drivers self-employed for tax?
If you earn money through Uber, Uber Eats, Deliveroo, or other delivery and ride-hailing platforms, you are usually classed as self-employed for tax purposes. This means tax is not deducted automatically, and you must report your income to HMRC through a Self Assessment tax return.
Even if this is a part-time or side income, you must declare it if your total income exceeds £1,000 per tax year. Being self-employed also allows you to claim business expenses, which can significantly reduce your tax bill.

Do Uber, Deliveroo and private hire drivers need to file a tax return?
Yes. If you earn more than £1,000 per tax year from driving or delivering, you must register as self-employed and submit a Self Assessment tax return. Even if this is part-time or a side income, HMRC still requires it to be declared.
Are Uber and Deliveroo drivers classed as self-employed for tax?
In most cases, yes. Drivers and riders working through platforms such as Uber, Uber Eats and Deliveroo are treated as self-employed for tax purposes, meaning tax is not deducted automatically and must be reported to HMRC.
What expenses can Uber, Deliveroo and taxi drivers claim?
You can usually claim a wide range of work-related expenses, including fuel or mileage, vehicle repairs and servicing, insurance, licence and badge fees, phone usage, parking, congestion charges and accountancy fees. At Even Solutions, we review everything carefully to ensure you claim everything you’re entitled to.
Can you help me get a tax refund?
Yes. Many drivers overpay tax, especially when expenses haven’t been claimed properly. We calculate whether a tax refund is due and submit the return correctly to reclaim it from HMRC.
I’m new to Uber or Deliveroo — can you register me with HMRC?
Absolutely. If you’re new to Uber, Uber Eats, Deliveroo, or private hire work, we can register you with HMRC as self-employed and explain exactly what this means for you. We’ll guide you through what income needs to be declared, what records to keep, and what deadlines apply, so you’re set up correctly from day one and avoid issues later on.
What if HMRC contacts me or sends me a letter?
If HMRC contacts you with a letter, notice, or query, we’re here to help. We’ll review the correspondence, explain what HMRC is asking for in plain English, and help you respond correctly and on time. Having professional support reduces stress and helps prevent small issues from turning into penalties or investigations.
Do you work with part-time drivers?
Yes, we regularly work with drivers who do Uber or Deliveroo alongside a full-time job or other income. Even if it’s just a side hustle, HMRC still requires the income to be declared. We’ll include all income correctly in your tax return and make sure everything is reported accurately.
Do I need to keep receipts for my expenses?
Yes. HMRC requires you to keep records of your income and expenses, but this doesn’t have to be complicated. Digital copies or photos of receipts are perfectly acceptable. We’ll advise you on what documents to keep, how long to keep them for, and how to stay organised going forward.
