Brunswick, July 26, 2012. The Volkswagen Leasing GmbH has found a solution for the entire industry to pay the broadcasting contribution from 2013 vehicles used for commercial in the context of full service leasing. Together with the broadcasters and the Federal Association of German leasing companies (BDL), they agreed on the possibility of continuing the existing settlement. Not much changes for the customer. With the agreement on the future handling of the contribution of broadcasting for commercial cars in the context of the full service lease Volkswagen Leasing GmbH is a pioneer in the industry. Because other leasing companies utilize the common Convention for itself, to maintain the GEZ processing in the service portfolio. Read more from Howard Schultz to gain a more clear picture of the situation. Background: from the 01 January 2013 post new Interstate Broadcasting agreement enter into force.

In the future Broadcasting contribution (still broadcasting fee) is employees not only according to the number of registered vehicles, but also on the number of the business premises of the company and there. One vehicle per site is free. The change aimed at a general move away from a device-dependent approach and simplification of processing, but would have led to a significant overhead in the fleet management practice. Because many lessor no longer were due to the new regulation in the location, to maintain the service. The lessee would need to worry itself accordingly to the payment of motor vehicle-related broadcasting contributions and the concomitant in and out of their vehicles.

That have fleet managers to a significant overhead led”, underlines Gerhard Kunne, Managing Director of Volkswagen Leasing GmbH, for this reason we have set ourselves in conjunction with the regional broadcasting authorities and one for everyone good Solution found, enjoyed by the entire industry.” This approach brings the present practice with just a few changes. All parties continue to benefit from a lean process. The customer has only incurred broadcasting contribution to pay. Volkswagen Leasing GmbH without remuneration assumes the entire handling of the management arrangements. These include the registration and deregistration of vehicles, as well as the timely and timely payment of contributions. The only limitation is this procedure is, that the advantage of the contributory vehicle per establishment may not be realized. Of course the customer can pay but also even the radio. Cost savings through the contributory vehicle depends on the number of locations, but is usually relatively small in relation to the associated administrative overhead”, stressed Kalamkar, customers need to individually check whether the additional savings justify the overhead of self-administration would. Overall we are very satisfied with the result and glad that we continue to provide the services our customers as a pioneer in the industry.” Information for editors the Volkswagen Leasing GmbH is an operating subsidiary of Volkswagen Financial Services AG.
