How does a novated lease work?

Under a novated lease, you purchase the vehicle and then “novate” the finance agreement to your employer. As a result, your employer agrees to take on your obligations (repayments) to the finance company, and is responsible for all of the agreed vehicle expenses which are deducted from your remuneration as part of your salary packaging arrangement. You agree to “salary sacrifice” a portion of your earnings in return for the benefit of a car equal to that amount.

How does a novated lease help me save?

With a Novated Lease, the lease, running costs of the vehicle and Fringe Benefits Tax (FBT) are deducted from your pre-tax earnings, and PAYG income tax is calculated on your reduced salary. This can effectively increase your net disposable income as you pay less tax.
