Today, we were given the revised company regulations regarding travel.
Section 9.5 : Holidays Combined with Business Trips says…
"On the grounds of regulations by the tax office business trips of employees to official events combined with a holiday that are financed by Fuji Electric will be subject to taxation. For this reason it is no longer permitted to combine a business trip with a vacation using a ticket (air or train) that was financed by the company. In case of an exception the employee will have to pay for the tax due."
I am afraid my talent lies in numbers and not in words. I have absolutely no idea about something that remotely sounds like legalese.
Does this mean that if my boss approves, I can do as usual and schedule extended trips provided I pay tax dues? Would it mean tax for the whole ticket price even if I, say, only plan to extend my stay over the weekend?
Can anyone out there who speaks English translate this for me, please?
