Fields:

- `kilometers`: Business kilometres
- `periode`: These kilometres are (week, jaar)
- `weken`: Weeks per year

Result of this example:

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

## 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](https://goldmary.eu/en/blog/bonnetjes-bewaren).

If you drive a company car, other rules apply. Read about them in [the kilometre allowance for freelancers](https://goldmary.eu/en/blog/kilometervergoeding-zzp).

## 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?

No. The calculation runs when the page loads and nothing is stored.
