About tmcmatch.co.uk
tmcmatch.co.uk is an independent publication. It explains UK business travel management, expenses and the tax rules around them from HMRC manuals and published industry regulation.
Who writes this
Pages here are written and reviewed by Imogen Hale, who edits tmcmatch.co.uk. Every page carries three dates in the same place: when it was published, when it was last reviewed, and the date the underlying rule was checked against its source. When a figure changes, the page is rewritten and the review date moves. When we get something wrong, we correct it on the page rather than quietly deleting it.
What this site is not
We are not a travel management company, an accountant or a tax adviser, and nothing here is tax advice. We do not rank, score, recommend or endorse any provider, and there are no reviews, star ratings or “best of” lists anywhere on this site, because we could not substantiate them.
How this site makes money
We offer advertising to providers in this field, and the only arrangement we will ever accept is a fixed fee per enquiry, agreed in advance. That fee can never vary with the outcome of your matter, with anything you are quoted, or with anything you eventually pay. Nobody can buy a better position in our content, because there are no positions to buy — we do not list providers. We will not pass your details to anyone who has not agreed to those terms, and if nobody has, we will tell you rather than send them anywhere.
How we source
The sourcing rules are published in full, separately, so you can hold us to them: how we verify what is on this site. In short: primary sources, quoted rather than paraphrased, linked to the official page, and dated. Where we could not reach an official source we say so on the page instead of estimating.
Corrections and questions
If something here is wrong, tell us and we will fix the page. Write to contact@tmcmatch.co.uk, or use the enquiry form on any page and put Correction at the start of your message. Tell us the page, the sentence, and the source you think is right — that is what we need to check it against ours.
Journalists, researchers and anyone citing a page can use the same address. It is for questions about this site and its sources; it cannot give advice on a procurement, and requirements for travel suppliers should go through the form.
