Pay a fixed travel allowance untaxed until 1 April 2021

As an employer, you can continue to pay the existing fixed travel allowances to your employees untaxed until 1 April 2021. The cabinet has decided to extend this measure temporarily.

What do you have to pay attention to?

Condition untaxed continued payment the cabinet previously approved the untaxed continued payment of the fixed travel allowance. Even if your employees have no or fewer travel expenses. This approval was initially valid until February 1, 2021. Due to the ongoing corona crisis, the government has decided to extend the approval until at least April 1, 2021. The condition is that it concerns fixed expense allowances, which were already granted on March 12, 2020. The approval therefore does not apply if there are changed circumstances after March 12, 2020, for example, due to a relocation or contract extension.

Now that the measures related to the corona crisis continue, it is possible that the approval will be renewed again. We will of course keep you informed of developments.
