What you must decide2 conditions

Published beside the figure, and never applied for you.

  • The flat rate and the real costs are alternatives, not a choice made twice

    Whoever takes the official rate may not also claim higher actual expenses. Whoever can prove — with a logbook — that the real cost of the business journeys was higher may claim the difference at assessment. Which of the two applies needs the taxpayer’s records.

  • An employee deducts 132 EUR a year without proving anything

    BMF: “Jeder aktiven Arbeitnehmerin und jedem aktiven Arbeitnehmer steht ein Werbungskostenpauschale in der Höhe von 132 Euro jährlich zu … Die folgenden in der Praxis am häufigsten anfallenden Werbungskosten wirken sich daher nur dann steuermindernd aus, wenn sie insgesamt mehr als 132 Euro jährlich betragen.” Claiming this figure as Werbungskosten changes the tax due only above that total, and comparing them needs the employee’s other professional costs, which are theirs. Nothing here touches an employer’s Kilometergeld under § 26 Z 4, which is not taxable income in the first place.
