France company car taxable benefit calculator 2026
A simulation for private-sector employees under France's general scheme in metropolitan France. Contributions use 2026 parameters; without a personal rate, withholding uses the official default grid.
Indicative estimate. Payslips, collective agreements, contract type and company-specific rates may change the result.

Method, sources and limitations
The engine adds salary, bonuses and taxable benefits, applies annual contribution caps and separates pre-tax pay from withholding at the entered or estimated rate. The reverse calculator solves for gross pay. Bonus and company-car tools compare two scenarios on identical assumptions.
Taxable pay does not cover health insurance, supplementary cover or every payslip-specific component. Employer cost includes only modelled charges and standard general relief assuming full-time work; enter company-specific rates before budgeting. Check results with the official Urssaf calculator.
