Tax, VAT and duties on company cars

Cars and other types of specialized vehicles are an indispensable part of everyday life for most people, both for private use and for business operations, including driving between home and work.

For many, choosing a car or other types of special vehicles also signifies a personal passion and interest in cars.  

Keeping a car or van in Denmark can be expensive. That's why it's a good idea to consult an advisor before signing the contract or leasing agreement, so that costs can be limited or optimized and the possible tax consequences can be taken into account.

The tax, VAT and duty rules for vehicles are actually more complicated than most people realize. As a result, we often see mistakes in the handling, also by the seller or leasing companies, which can have financial consequences for you.

We can also guide you through the use of leasing, whether it's flex leasing, split leasing, private leasing, business leasing, financial/operational leasing and second-hand leasing etc. or a combination of these.
