Kilometre allowance calculator for freelancers
Enter your business kilometres, per week or per year. You will see how much you deduct from your profit.
You deduct €1,725.00 from your profit.
| Business kilometres per year | 6,900 km |
|---|---|
| Deduction per kilometre | €0.25 |
| Deduction from your profit | €1,725.00 |
Commuting (woon-werkverkeer) counts as business travel for income tax, so those kilometres count too.
How the deduction is worked out
| Step | Formula |
|---|---|
| Kilometres per year | kilometres per week × weeks per year |
| Deduction | kilometres per year × €0.25 per kilometre |
An example. You drive 150 kilometres per week and work 46 weeks. That is 6,900 kilometres per year. The deduction is 6,900 × €0.25 = €1,725.00.
When this amount applies
- You use a vehicle that is yours or that you hire privately, such as a car, motorbike or bike.
- You do not deduct fuel, insurance, tolls and parking separately. They are already in the amount per kilometre.
- Keep track of your kilometres, for example with a mileage log. Also read how to keep your receipts.
If you drive a company car, other rules apply. Read about them in the kilometre allowance for freelancers.
Questions
Does commuting count?
Yes. For income tax, commuting (woon-werkverkeer) counts as business kilometres.
Can I deduct petrol and parking separately?
No. Those costs are already in the amount per kilometre, so you do not deduct them a second time.
Does this also apply with a company car?
No. This amount only applies if you use a vehicle for business that is privately yours or that you hire privately.
Is what I enter stored?
