BIK (Benefits In Kind) Van Charges! In April 2007,
the new Benefits In Kind van charge came into operation.
This new charge has a significant implication for both
employers & employees.What it
all means:
- Taxable benefit on company vans
subject to private use jumped from £500 to £3000 per
annum from April 07 & £3500 where private mileage fuel
is included
- The onus is on you, the
employer is responsible for providing what tax is paid.
Simply to ban private use isn't enough. The new tax
applies unless you provide adequate proof that private
use is excluded.
- The BIK van charge doesn't just
impact on your employees, your business will have to pay
an extra £448 each year for every driver in increased
Class 1A National Insurance Contributions.
The only realistic solution is
vehicle tracking, logging the movements of your company
vehicles. Our fleet management solutions can include
business/private mileage which is compliant with the new BIK
van charges. We also offer Driver ID, giving you
traceability of which driver was in what vehicle.
