What is Benefit In Kind tax and when do I pay it?
Any awards being made out of the Trust in the form of a loan to employees are taxable under the Beneficial Loan Rules as if the benefit were provided by the employer (Benefit in Kind). An individual will pay tax on the HMRC assessed benefit which is the official rate of interest, currently 6.25%. This amount will then be taxed at 22% or 40% depending on whether the individual is a basic or higher rate taxpayer.
