Antibody tests

Manjit Kaur

My company wants to offer Antibody (not Covid) tests to our employees and their families.

My understanding is that it would definitely be a taxable benefit for the employees, but does anyone know if it would be taxable for the families too?

I can't get hold of anyone at HMRC to get an answer.

Thanks.

  • Yes, I believe antibody tests would be a taxable benefit for both. Antigen/PCR tests are not.

    I am not sure I see the benefit of offering antibody tests though as they are pretty inaccurate and do not provide any reassurance that someone who has been infected is immune, but I guess some people may be curious and find some comfort in knowing either way.
