West Mercia Police Federation

Tax Relief on Fed subs

You can claim tax relief on your Fed membership

Did you know membership subscriptions of professional bodies and organisations, such as the Police Federation, attract tax relief?

That means if you claim tax relief on the subscription amount paid you can partly offset the cost by paying less tax – the Chancellor pays the difference. 

For basic rate taxpayers for each £1 paid in subscription your tax bill could be reduced by 20p. Individual circumstances might apply but you should see how much you could save. Officers serving in the Met and West Yorkshire do not need to apply for this as tax relief is automatically given on your subscription.

Or you can complete and return this Tax relief letter to HMRC office. 

If you are a Student officer please use the Student Tax relief letter.
