Lease Agreement and Income Tax
The lease agreement along with the service contract is a popular method of cooperation chosen by taxi drivers.
Income Tax from Car Lease
Income tax from leasing a car is an obligation that drivers must independently pay to the Tax Office. This is especially important from the moment of receiving the first income from the lease.
Forms of Lease Taxation
Drivers have the option to choose the form of lease taxation, which must be done no later than the 20th day of the following month after receiving the first payment. There are two main forms of car lease taxation: lump sum and taxation based on general rules.
- Lump Sum: This involves taxing the lease income with a fixed tax rate of 8.5%. It is a simpler form of taxation that may be advantageous for some drivers.
- Taxation based on General Rules: In this form of taxation, the tax rate is 18% of the lease income. It may be more advantageous for drivers who have high costs associated with running their business.

Possibility of Reducing the Tax Base
Taxi drivers who use a passenger car based on a rental agreement can reduce their taxable base by including expenses related to the use of the vehicle as costs, such as fuel, repairs, or the purchase of spare parts.
How to Settle?
Reporting the lease agreement and settling the tax can be done in person at the Tax Office, by mail, or by bank transfer with the appropriate description.
