Overview

2022 highlights

Barclays continues to make substantial tax payments across the countries in which we operate. Over the last decade, we have consistently been ranked as one of the top five largest UK taxpayers, paying over £14bn of taxes in the UK.

Barclays continues to make substantial tax payments across the countries in which we operate, both in terms of the taxes we pay, which represent a cost to us (hereafter referred to as 'taxes paid'), and taxes collected, which are those we administer on behalf of governments and collect from others as we do business. In 2022, we made a total tax contribution of £5,572m globally.

Over the last decade,

we have consistently been ranked as one of the top five largest UK taxpayers.

Barclays was ranked as the fifth largest UK taxpayer, in terms of taxes paid, in the most recent PwC Total Tax Contribution survey of the One Hundred Group (100 Group). The 100 Group represents members of the FTSE 100 along with several large UK private companies. Over the last decade, we have consistently been ranked as one of the top five largest UK taxpayers, paying over £14bn of taxes in the UK.

Our efforts to increase our transparency

Transparency remains high on our agenda and tax continues to be an important issue for our stakeholders.

During 2022, we were one of three companies shortlisted for the 2022 PwC Building Public Trust Award: Tax Reporting in the FTSE 350 - Multinationals.

We believe that it is important for our investors, customers and clients, regulators, tax authorities and other stakeholders to understand our approach to tax and our tax contribution in the countries in which we operate.

Consistent with our commitment to tax transparency we have published details of the taxes we pay and our approach to tax since 2013, and we have enhanced our report each year. This year's Country Snapshot is no exception.
