What is the 60-day rule and how do you stay compliant?

The 60-day rule is a core part of SKAT\'s requirements for company cars and mileage reimbursement. If you use your company car for both private and business driving, you need to understand this rule to avoid incorrect taxation.

In this post, we explain what the rule means, why it matters, and how you can comply easily with Meta Trak Denmark\'s digital mileage log.

What does the 60-day rule mean?

The 60-day rule defines how many days you may drive to the same workplace before it is tax-classified as a permanent workplace.

According to SKAT, the following applies:

• If you drive to the same workplace for more than 60 days within 12 months, that location is treated as a permanent workplace.
• Driving to a permanent workplace is not tax-free business travel; it is treated as private commuting.
• The rule resets if you have not visited the workplace for 60 consecutive days, after which the counter starts again.

This means you must be able to document where and when you drive, so you can prove to SKAT that you comply with the rules.

Why is compliance important?

If your trips are not documented correctly, SKAT may classify them as private even when they are business-related. That can lead to extra tax, lost reimbursement, and unnecessary administrative work.

By following the 60-day rule continuously, you avoid mileage log errors and keep reimbursement and company-car taxation accurate.
