How to Save Tax with a Novated Lease

  • Novated leases have become an increasingly popular way for employees to buy a new car, largely due to the amount of tax benefits involved. A novated lease is an agreement between an employer, employee and a vehicle financier. A novated lease also provides the employee with the means to salary sacrifice their income in order to pay for their car over a period of time.

  • Novated lease pre-tax benefits

  • It’s due to salary sacrificing that a number of novated lease tax benefits come to the fore. Because you’re paying for a vehicle in pre-tax dollars, you are able to enjoy a lower rate of tax. If you were paying for the vehicle another way, you’d be subjected to increased tax and therefore would end up paying more for the car. Ultimately, novated leases save you tax money.
