Can you deduct maintenance and travel expenses to shops and post offices as a small business owner?
If only one portion per year? If so, how much? Do I need proof?
Where exactly do I enter that?
specifically, it is about:
Maintenance of my private car, which I use to drive to markets and deliver company parcels to the post office. ::
> Brake maintenance and service
> Trips to stores to get materials
Treating them as business expenses has nothing to do with the small business VAT regime. This is just as possible as if you were taxed under the normal tax rules.
Only an input tax deduction for the VAT included in the invoices is not possible
If the vehicle is private property, the direct costs are not deductible. However, for business trips, 30 cents per kilometer driven can be estimated as business expenses. However, if the vehicle is used for business purposes for at least 50% of the time, it is considered essential business assets.
Drivers and cars are private, so they're not tax-deductible. Unless your car is registered in the company parking lot, it may still function as a company-owned vehicle.
The only deciding factor is whether it is a private car used for business purposes or a company vehicle used for private purposes.
In both cases, however, business trips have a tax-reducing effect.
Well, it's purely personal. But I also use it to get supplies, go to markets and trade fairs, and drop off packages from the online shop. But I can't deduct costs like "new brakes, oil changes, etc.", can I?
What is the proportion of business use?
What is more advantageous for you in terms of taxes falls under traditional tax advice and is beyond the scope of this forum.
