Whether you're an employee or a company director, using a company car privately triggers a taxable benefit in kind.

But how much will you pay? 🤔

It depends on:

🚘 The car's catalogue price

🌱 CO₂ emissions and fuel type

📅 The age of the vehicle

💡 Good to know: Even a fuel card doesn't increase your personal taxable benefit!

Company director in Belgium? What will your pension look like?

Good news: since 2021, the statutory pension for self-employed individuals — including company directors — is calculated more favourably.

But your statutory pension may still not be enough to maintain your current lifestyle after retirement.

That’s where supplementary pension planning through your company can make a difference — including an Individual Pension Agreement or Group Insurance Policy.

📌 And don’t forget the important 80% rule.

Using your private car for work? You may be able to deduct part of the costs.

Fuel, parking, insurance, maintenance, road tax, depreciation and more can qualify for a tax deduction — depending on your business use.

But there’s a catch: you need to track your mileage and distinguish between business, commuting and private trips.

And in Belgium, CO₂ emissions and the type of vehicle also affect deductibility. ⚡

👀 How much does the Belgian taxman know about you?
Bank accounts, investments, foreign accounts, life insurance… more and more financial information is being collected and digitally compared.
Since the end of 2025, the Belgian tax authorities can use CAP data together with other information for data matching, data mining and risk profiling.
⚠️ This doesn’t mean they can simply see every transaction in your bank account.
But it does mean that inconsistencies in your tax reporting are becoming easier to spot?
For taxpayers with foreign accounts, investments or other international assets, accurate and consistent reporting matters more than ever.

How is your company’s investment portfolio taxed in Belgium ?
The tax treatment of a company’s investment portfolio is different from investing privately.
For companies:
🔹 Investment income is generally taxed as business income
🔹 Interest on fixed-income securities is taxed at 25%
🔹 Dividends may qualify for the Dividends-Received Deduction (DRD) if specific conditions are met
🔹 Capital gains on shares may also benefit from the DRD regime — but the conditions are strict
💡 Your investment strategy can therefore have important tax consequences for your company.
