Private Use Opt Out Question

[Huxley]

I have opted out of the private use of the company van, I know I will be doing mileage log sheets and only using it to travel to and from work at the moment they are unmarked then we will be getting plain white vans shortly with the compay logo etc on them

Is there anybody else that has done this and what other information has you company asked you for ?

There's loads of info on here about the subject. Posted much of it myself.

Does beg the question though. Why opt out of something and THEN go looking for the relevant info.

No, because I work from home, if I go to the office once a month it's excessive.

No no need to according to the HMRC website

HMRC web site info From 6 April 2005, a lot of people will no longer have to pay tax on their company van. You will only pay tax if you use the van for private journeys other than journeys between home and work. If you are affected by this, please talk to your employer then get in touch with us so we can change your tax code to make sure you pay the right amount of tax.

What if I only use the van for work journeys?

If the only journeys you make in the van are work journeys

No no need to according to the HMRC website

Because the company are asking some questions about our own personal vehicles and there is no question to any of this on the HMRC website asking for the same info if that begs your question !!!

Nothing to do with company.
