Travel Expenses
2023 Tax Return Fuel Fee Schedule
Publié le null - Directorate for Legal and Administrative Information (Prime Minister)
Do you use your car to get to work or for business trips? If the 10% flat-rate deduction does not cover your expenses, you can choose to deduct your business expenses for their actual amount. For business travel expenses, you can opt for the fuel charge scale for calculating your actual expenses or for the mileage scale that will be published shortly.
The 2022 fuel charge schedule for the 2023 tax return has just been published. Amounts increase markedly, by around 30% for diesel vehicles and 16% for super unleaded vehicles, and decrease for LPG. It is applicable to individual companies who have opted for super-simplified accounting and, subject to conditions, to holders of non-commercial profits (professional services, office holders and offices, professions subject to copyright, etc.) and to employees who use their car for business trips. The fuel charge schedule applies only to vehicles with mixed personal and professional use. Commercial vehicles are not eligible.
If you opt for fuel charges, the actual deductible costs other than parking, garage, toll and interest on your credit may not exceed the amount of the mileage scale (to be published).
