Calculate how much your company car will cost you in 2012

2012-01-05T09:08:44+00:00

One of Belgium's payroll agencies, Partena, has published a useful tool that allows you to see how much your company car is going to cost you in 2012 under new tax rules which came into force on 1st January 2012. The new rules calculate the taxable value of your car based on four criteria: CO2 emissions, the catalogue value of the car, the type of fuel used and the distance between your home and office. Partena's tool also allows you to compare the cost in 2011 with the new cost in 2012.  It is available here http://partenahr.be/s_car_atn.aspx?&Langtype=2060
