Hi
All my scanned receipts are in quickfile, there is a second copy in my Dropbox cloud, and then a third copy on my computer.
Is there any need for me to keep the original receipts as well? Is there any legal stipulation to keep the originals?
Thanks for any advice
Hi @philingle
In a HMRC help guide, it states the following:
You can keep most records on a computer or use any storage device such as CD-ROM, USB memory stick or a network drive. You may not need to keep the original paper records as long as the method you use captures all the information (front and back) on the document and allows you to present the information to us in a readable format, if requested.
