Mileage allowance
The mileage allowance (IK) reimburses the use of a personal vehicle for business travel, according to the official DGFIP rate schedule. Simon computes the exact amount; it is up to you to guarantee that the trips are real, justifiable and tied to a period.
When declaring, you validate the vehicle and its fiscal horsepower, the mileage, the period, the business nature of the trip, and the generated OD.
Registering a vehicle
Before declaring mileage allowances, register your vehicle:
“I use my Clio 5CV petrol for my business travel”
Simon records the information needed for the calculation:
| Information | Detail |
|---|---|
| Vehicle type | Car, motorcycle or moped |
| Fiscal horsepower | Value shown on the registration certificate |
| Electric powertrain | Enables the 20% increase |
| Vehicle name | Free-form name, for example “Clio 5CV” |
The DGFIP rate schedule
Simon applies the official DGFIP mileage rate schedule. The rate depends on the vehicle type (car, motorcycle, moped), its fiscal horsepower and the annual mileage, split into three brackets. Electric vehicles benefit from a 20% increase. The exact amounts depend on the year embedded in the installed version.
Marginal calculation
Simon computes mileage allowances marginally: the amount of a declaration takes into account the kilometers already declared during the year. It applies the rate schedule to the new annual cumulative total and subtracts what corresponded to the previous cumulative total — which gives exactly the portion to reimburse for the added kilometers.
Declaring mileage allowances
“I drove 800 km in February for client meetings”
Simon:
- Fetches the annual cumulative total already declared for this vehicle
- Computes the marginal amount (rate for the total cumulative − rate for the previous cumulative)
- Creates a draft OD with:
- Debit: 6251 (mileage allowances)
- Credit: 455 (shareholder current account — reimbursement)
The OD is dated the last day of the period’s month.
