“Can I Claim That as a Business Expense?” …and Other Questions OnlyFans Creators Really Want to Ask (But Don’t)
Let’s be honest — when it comes to tax, OnlyFans creators have questions. But not all of them feel “safe for work.” We’re lifting the lid on the top 5 things you're dying to ask your tax advisor but might be too shy to say out loud. No judgment, just real talk and smart answers.
HMRCONLYFANSTAXQUESTIONS
Running an OnlyFans account isn’t just content creation, it’s running a business. And like any business owner, you've probably had a few late-night thoughts like: “Is this a legitimate expense?” or “What if HMRC knocks on my door?” 😳
But when it comes time to actually speak to an accountant, the nerves kick in. Maybe you're worried your questions are too awkward, too obvious, or just plain embarrassing. Spoiler: they’re not.
At The Tax Faculty, we work with creators at every level — from brand new to booming — and trust us, we’ve heard it all. So in the spirit of breaking the ice (and saving you from the classic “umm, asking for a friend…”), here are the top 5 questions OnlyFans creators really want to ask us — but often don’t.
Let’s clear things up — minus the awkward. 😉
Have Your Questions Answered
Your Top 5 Questions Answered
1. Can I really claim outfits, props, and filming equipment as business expenses?
Short answer: Yes — if they’re wholly and exclusively for work. Whether it’s lighting, wardrobe pieces, or subscriptions that help with your content, it all counts. We’re not here to judge — just here to make sure you're not missing out on legit deductions.
2. Do I have to tell you exactly what I do on my page?
Nope. We're not here to deep-dive your content. Our job is to handle your numbers, not your niche. You can tell us as much or as little as you like — either way, we’ve got you covered with professional, respectful advice.
3. How do I pay less tax without breaking the rules?
We love this question — because there are ways to legally reduce your tax bill. Think: smart expense tracking, efficient business structures, and understanding what HMRC actually allows. No dodgy loopholes. Just good strategy.
4. What if I’ve never done a tax return and I’m panicking?
You're not alone. Lots of creators start earning before even realising they need to register. Whether you’re one year behind or more, we can help you get caught up — no lectures, no stress, just solutions.
5. Will HMRC find out I’m on OnlyFans?
They don’t care about your platform — they care that you're declaring your income. If you're earning money, it's taxable. Staying on top of things means peace of mind, no nasty surprises, and staying fully legit. We’ll help you sort it, quietly and professionally.

Running a successful OnlyFans account is running a business. Whether you’re just getting started or going full-time, you deserve expert tax support that’s honest, discreet, and personalised to meet the needs of you and your business.
