As a Self-employed barrister, what income should I include or exclude?

You must use the total fees you received (your Gross Fee Income) from practice at the Bar (without VAT) during the last calendar year, 1 January 2024 to 31 December 2024.  However, you must deduct from this any fees earned as an Arbitrator, Mediator or Umpire. 

Please note, you do not need to include any projected income for the purposes of our declaration. You are only required to provide your actual gross fee income.
