Sell your company car safely and sensibly to a private buyer, or discover why selling to a recognized buyer like Opkoper Bedrijfswagen saves you headaches.
Yes, you certainly can. As an entrepreneur, you may sell your company car to a private individual. But beware: the law considers you a professional seller, which means you must provide a two-year warranty, even for a one-off sale. In addition, VAT usually remains due on the sale price. We are happy to help you with a correct settlement.
<p>Many entrepreneurs don't realize that a sale to a private individual is not the same as a sale between two private individuals. Because you used the vehicle for business, different rules apply. For example, you are required to pay VAT on the sale price, and you cannot waive the warranty obligation. A professional buyer like Opkoper Bedrijfswagen takes over these obligations from you, so you can sell without risk.</p>
Determining a correct price is tricky: you don't want to go too low, but a price that's too high scares buyers away. Look at comparable models on platforms and don't forget that as an entrepreneur you also have to pass on VAT. Prefer a quick offer without searching? Get a free valuation at Opkoper Bedrijfswagen and you'll immediately have a market-based proposal.
A sales agreement prevents misunderstandings. Include personal details, vehicle details, the sale price (including VAT), and any defects. When selling to a buyer, you don't have to worry about this; we provide a watertight contract.
In Belgium, selling a car privately without inspection is allowed, but an inspection certificate builds trust. Note: an inspection for sale does not replace the normal periodic inspection. Anyone selling a company car to a private individual would do well to have the vehicle inspected to avoid disputes afterwards.
The VAT on selling a company car is a tricky point. When you, as a VAT payer, dispose of your company car, you must charge VAT to the buyer. The VAT rate depends on the age of the vehicle and whether you originally deducted the VAT in full or in part. Mistakes in the VAT return can have unpleasant consequences. Opkoper Bedrijfswagen handles the VAT flawlessly for you.
When selling to a buyer, we check all documents and send you the necessary forms. That way you know everything is correct.
After the sale, you must return the license plate to the DIV or cancel it online, unless you transfer the plate to another vehicle. Don't forget to cancel the insurance. If you sell to Opkoper Bedrijfswagen, we handle the entire transfer.
