Hi, thanks for your question!
Dress code is casual, but smart. We can wear denim, so its pretty relaxed, but no slogans on t-shirts, or obviously nothing offensive!
🙂

brilliant thanks Sally! I have just went and go some nice new converse for starting just in black hope that's okay with some dark jeans?

HMRC does not have a strict dress code or uniform for most roles. We ask colleagues to dress appropriately for their role and working environment.
In practice, this means:
- Clothing should be clean, tidy, and professional
- Clothing should not contain offensive language or images
- Colleagues should feel comfortable and able to be themselves at work
What is considered appropriate can vary depending on the role (for example, customer‑facing or office‑based), and HMRC takes a flexible and inclusive approach. If someone is representing HMRC externally, they may choose to dress a little more formally, but this is not rigidly enforced.
Our focus is on respect, professionalism, and inclusion, rather than prescribing what people must wear.
