The employment contract: Company car benefit

Company car benefit, how do I handle it?

Company car benefit, what does it actually mean?

If the employee has a car that the company pays for, benefits and allowances can arise that must be handled on the employee’s salary. See below for what may need to be filled in. A private car is handled under the General tab.

What do you fill in under the Company car and benefits tab in Kleer?

Does the employee use their private car for work, with mileage allowance to be paid? Then you handle this under the General tab of the employment contract.

If the employee has a car that the company pays for, though, the information about the car must be filled in under the Company car and benefits tab. What to fill in depends on whether the car is only used for work or also privately, and on whether the employee pays for the fuel themselves. To correct a car that is already registered, click the edit pencil on the right. Otherwise click Add. Do not forget to check the benefit value every year, as it can change. You can find the amount at the Swedish Tax Agency.

Registration number

The registration number is always filled in.

Fuel

The type of fuel is filled in and controls the standard amount for mileage allowance when an employee pays for the fuel used for work. If a fuel benefit is to be activated, this is handled under the General tab.

Start date/End date

These dates are filled in if you are to be taxed on a benefit because you use the company car privately. The dates control between which dates the employee is taxed on the benefit value below. The start and end dates must not fall outside the start and end dates of the employment.

Reimbursement

The reimbursement per Swedish mile (10 km) is filled in if mileage allowance is to be paid for the company car. If the reimbursement exceeds the standard amount, the part above it becomes taxable. The standard amount is affected by which fuel was filled in above.
