FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the difference between long-term rental and leasing?
Long-term rental is a so called operating lease, so an alternative for finance lease – it is not only funding, but also full vehicle management. In case of rental, the owner of the vehicle remains the leasing company (Arval), while the client uses it in return for a fixed payment. The client does not pay off the whole value of the vehicle, but he pays only for its exploitation during the rental period. To find out more see also Finance lease and rental.
- I am already leasing cars, how can I rent them?
One of the methods is to establish cooperation with Arval simultaneously with the cooperation with the previous leasing company. By the termination of the „old” leasing contracts, new vehicles will be ordered in Arval. Please contact our Sales Department 22 45 45 500 or fill in the contact form. Our Sales Manager will analyze your case and propose the most convenient solution.
- I have my own cars, how can I rent them?
If your vehicles are relatively new and in good technical condition, Arval can buy them and lease them back to you – it is a so called lease back. However, if your fleet already requires replacement, Arval may help you to sell the old vehicles and rent new ones instead. Please contact our Sales Department 22 45 45 500 or fill in the contact form. Our Sales Manager will analyze your case and propose the most convenient solution.
- Is it possible to establish cooperation with more than one leasing/renting company?
Of course. It may be a way of comparing offers, the quality of services and to chose a better deliverer or to check the previous one. The offers are apparently similar, but Arval’s offer is worth experiencing, as it may be much more convenient for you.
- I have a small fleet, I am afraid that renting is too expensive for me.
Maybe it used to be like that, but the market is constantly changing and so are the prices. Arval’s offer is very competitive in comparison with other forms of vehicle funding. Please contact our Sales Department 22 45 45 500 or fill in the contact form. Our Sales Manager will analyze your case and propose the most convenient solution.
- Is renting beneficial when it comes to taxation?
Of course. Renting enables not only VAT deduction, but also inclusion of the whole financial instalment in the tax deductible revenue. To find out more see also Legal aspects.
- Is it possible to import a second-hand car from abroad and to rent it in Arval?
Unfortunately not. Arval rents only new vehicles. We offer you every brand and car model which is available on the Polish market.
- For how long is it possible to rent cars in Arval?
According to The Accounting Act, to regard the rental contract as operating lease, the minimum rental period should constitute 40% of the depreciation period (5 years), so 2 years. The maximum duration is 4.5 years (54 months). To find out more see also Legal aspects.
If you would like to rent a car for a short period – please contact the so called rent-a-car companies. - How do you settle the vehicle mileage?
The mileage depends on the vehicle’s purpose. The mileage is different for vehicles used by sales representatives and for vehicles used by the company management. That is why the mileage covered is set together by Arval and the client, after analysing the needs of your company. There are, of course, standard and most frequent mileages, which we can (but do not have to) include in your contract. It is impossible to settle an exact mileage, so Arval accepts modifications in the contract terms (mileage, rental period) during its validity.
- Is it possible to lease machines or other equipment from Arval?
Unfortunately not. Arval Poland occupies itself with long-term rental and fleet management of vehicles to 3.5 ton (passenger cars and light delivery trucks).
It is our sister company BNP PARIBAS LeaseGroup, a leading leasing company in Europe, which occupies itself with all types of machine leasing.
