All costs, like costs for purchase, repair or replacing parts, can be declared as business expenses. What are the disadvantages? You have to record it accurately in your administration and there\u2019s an additional tax liability for private use. So take into account the following:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Purchase<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s important to be aware of the fact that you can only declare your new bike as a company bike if you use it for your business at least 10% of the times you use it. When you declare your bike as a company bike, make sure the invoice is in your company\u2019s name and add the invoice to your administration.<\/p>\n<p><strong>VAT (btw)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You will get back the VAT on the purchase of your bike. Makes sense, since it\u2019s a regular business purchase. After purchase you estimate the percentage you\u2019ll use the bike privately and the percentage you\u2019ll use your bike for business. Let\u2019s say it\u2019s: 60% business and 40% private. In this case you can get a return for 60% of the VAT. At the end of the year you\u2019ll check if your estimate of business use was correct and if it differs, you correct it.<\/p>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<section class=\"text-image-right-block block\">\n    <div class=\"container\">\n        <div class=\"row flex-column-reverse flex-md-row\">\n\n            <!-- Text -->\n            <div class=\"text-image-right-block__text-wrapper rich-text col-12 offset-lg-1 col-md-6 col-lg-4 offset-xl-2 col-xl-3\">\n\n                <p><strong>Income tax<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When you make more costs, your profit will decrease which means you pay less taxes.

For instance when you buy a cheap, old bike and it won\u2019t give you a lot of benefits to declare it as a company bike. When you keep these costs private, you can write down the business kilometres you make in your kilometre registration. For each business kilometre you can declare \u20ac 0,19 as business costs.
