Electric van fuel benefit charge

HAVE you been given a van to use for work?

Does your employer pay for the fuel?

If so, you will need to pay a fuel benefit charge which is based on a flat rate charge of £581 for 2014-15 – read more here Company van tax rises in Budget.

But, if it’s an electric van, then like an electric car, there is currently no fuel benefit charge.

So if an employer allows an employee with a company or personally owned car to top up the battery of their BEV, PHEV or E-REV at work, it doesn’t fall under van fuel benefit charge.
