Within the same example, are you self-employed as a main occupation and do you use your car 100% of the time for professional purposes? Then you can deduct 80% of all car expenses, including your car insurance, as professional expenses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"what-car-expenses-are-tax-deductible\" class=\"wp-block-heading font-degular scroll-mt-32\">What car expenses are tax deductible?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"font-inter text-base leading-relaxed mb-4 first-of-type:mt-0 text-black wp-block-paragraph\">The purchase, financial renting or leasing of your car is (partially) tax deductible.
