As every year, certain measures taken during the past year bring some modifications to this statement.

One of the main new features concerns the mileage scale, which allows taxable households to deduct part of their fuel expenses as business expenses.

Faced with soaring gasoline and diesel prices, the government has decided to increase this scale by 10%, a measure that concerns

According to government sources, this measure should concern 4.3 million households declaring their actual costs, of which 2.5 million are actually taxed.

In addition, the tax-exempt purchasing power bonus, known as the Macron bonus, has been extended in 2021. It is exempt from tax up to a limit of 1,000 euros for any employee earning less than three times the minimum wage (gross), and up to '2,000 euros for companies with less than 50 employees who have concluded a profit-sharing or valuation agreement for so-called "second line" professions (i.e. professionals, excluding caregivers, who have continued to work on site during the lockdowns).
