How much tax do Uber drivers pay?

In short: drivers are self-employed. You pay Income Tax and Class 4 NI on profit after expenses. You can claim simplified mileage or actual vehicle costs, but not both for the same vehicle.

A worked example

A driver earns £30,000 after fees and drives 15,000 business miles. Mileage allowance is £5,750 and other costs £1,500, so profit is £22,750. Tax and NI come to about £2,647.

Making Tax Digital

From April 2026, drivers with turnover over £50,000 must keep digital records under Making Tax Digital. Our self-employed accountants file your return. Check your miles with our mileage tax calculator. More on our tax calculators page.
