(2024): Kann ich Fahrten einer „Sammelbeförderung“ absetzen?

Collective transport is applicable if your employer provides you with a vehicle for commuting between your home and workplace or if, for example, you travel by bus. Whether you can claim travel expenses depends on whether you actually incurred any costs or if the journeys were free of charge for you. If you did not make any contributions, you are not entitled to a travel allowance.

If you had to bear a share of the costs for the collective transport yourself, you can claim this amount with proof. The travel allowance is not applicable in this case.
