Benefits in Kind 2027: why this change is bigger than you think 

Thursday 16 April at 11am

 

Mandatory payrolling of most Benefits in Kind (BIKs) is coming in April 2027 – and this is far more than a simple reporting update.

Even if you already payroll benefits voluntarily, you need to be aware that significant changes are on the way and you’re not off the hook. There’s a growing myth that mandatory payrolling will simply extend what employers are already doing. It won’t.

In reality, the new interim legislation and guidance from HRMC confirms the 2027 changes are extensive. Expect changes to data collection, reporting requirements, Class 1A payment timings and more. These changes will require system updates, process reviews, budgeting changes and early preparation – regardless of your current approach.

In this session, we’ll cut through the assumptions and explain what this really means for payroll and HR teams.

We’ll cover:

• What mandatory BIK payrolling will require in practice
• Why existing voluntary payrolling does not remove the need for change
• Key updates from HMRC’s interim legislation and guidance
• How reporting will evolve from 2027/28
• The operational and compliance challenges employers must prepare for
• Practical steps to take now to avoid disruption later

If you think you’re already prepared, this webinar will help you sense-check that assumption, and if you’re not, will give you an idea of what you need to prepare.

Join us for a clear, practical overview of what’s changing – and why every employer with BIKs needs to pay attention, including payroll, HR and benefits teams.
