How the Mobility Budget Reduces Parking Costs for Employers

April 21, 2026

Currently in Belgium, especially in major cities like Brussels and Antwerp, high real estate prices and new climate regulations havemade maintaining large parking areas for company cars a significant financial burden.

The Financial Trap: CoBrACE Regulations Under the CoBrACE regulations in Brussels, managing excess parking spaces has become a complex financial liability. This regulation strictly limits the number of available parking spots for office buildings. If a company chooses to maintain more than 10 spaces, above the limit set by the Regional Planning Regulation (RRU), it must undergo a mandatory impact assessment.

However, the real sting lies in the "environmental tax"—an annual fee per additional space that varies based on the area's connectivity:

·      €450 in areas with excellent public transport connections (Zone A).

·      €350 in well-connected areas (Zone B).

·      €250 in moderately connected areas (Zone C).

This amount increases by 10% annually on accumulative basis for 15 years, making the expense unsustainable in the long term. In this context, reducing the physical fleet is no longer just an ecological choice, but a financial necessity to cut soaring corporate costs.

How the Mobility Budget Helps Reduce Parking Spots The Belgian Mobility Budget (Pillar 2) allows employees to exchange their company car for sustainable transport (bus/train passes, e-bikes, etc.) or—most importantly—to allocate their budget entirely to rent or mortgage interest payments.

To qualify for the housing benefit, employees must live within 10 kilometers of the office or telework at least 50% of the time. Because this benefit is 100% tax-free and net, it creates a powerful incentive for employees to voluntarily surrender their company cars, immediately freeing up parking spaces that are currently being drained by CoBrACE taxes.
