This benefit in kind is equal to a flat-rate percentage of the car\u2019s list price.

However, there are a number of specific options available for delivery vans to prove that fewer than 500 kilometres have been driven for private purposes. For example, no additional kilometres need to be added if it can be demonstrated that the vehicle is parked at the employer\u2019s premises outside the employee\u2019s working hours.<\/p>\n<p>A delivery van is a vehicle that is (primarily) fitted out and used for the transport of goods, but which does not qualify as a lorry.

This Court begins by ruling that the burden of proof regarding continuous alternating use rests with the employer, for whom payment of the \u20ac300 final levy is sufficient. The Court then found that, in the case before it, the employer had not provided any documentary evidence to show that there had been continuous alternating use of the delivery vans. It added that the journey logs also did not indicate continuous alternating use.<\/p>\n<p>The Court ruled that the Tax and Customs Administration was right to impose an additional assessment of the employer\u2019s payroll tax on the basis of the flat-rate allowance.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Voor een aan een werknemer ter beschikking gestelde auto moet aangaande het priv\u00e9gebruik loon in natura in aanmerking worden genomen.
