How it works
The mobility budget in Belgium offers structured mobility benefits for employees that support flexibility, tax efficiency, and sustainable commuting options. Spending is divided into three categories defined by law. Each category aligns with company car alternatives and fleet management alternatives that reduce emissions and costs.
This gives employees real choice. With a mobility budget, an employee can lease an e‑bike, use public transport two days a week, receive a housing allowance for living near the office and cash out the leftover budget at the end of the year.
Who Is eligible for the mobility budget?
To qualify for the mobility budget, these conditions apply:
- The employer must have offered company cars for at least 36 consecutive months.
- Employees must be eligible for a company car under the employer’s car policy.
- A formal written agreement is required to opt in.
- The mobility budget must be offered consistently and equitably to all eligible employees.
- From 1 January 2026, all employers who provide company cars will be legally obliged to also offer the mobility budget.
