Increase in personal travel expenses exempt from personal income tax for the self-employed and workers

The Official State Gazette has published an Order raising from 0.19 euros to 0.26 euros the amount of the daily allowances and allowances for travel expenses for the self-employed and workers, which can be deducted in the income tax return. This measure, which represents an increase of 7 cents, especially benefits workers who have to travel with their own vehicle.
As long as the journeys are duly justified, as well as the toll and parking costs, self-employed and workers will be able to benefit from this increase. However, although this measure is important, it is considered that there are other expenses associated with these journeys that are not being taken into account, such as, for example, meal vouchers, which should also be updated.
In recent months, the price of fuel has risen considerably. Undoubtedly, hauliers, together with the self-employed, have suffered the consequences closely, as this fact was not taken into account in the IRPF withholding.
