Transportation, meals, accommodations—all of these are expenses that either your company can reimburse you for, or you can deduct from your taxes. \n\n \n\nAnd If you’re driving during the trip, whether it’s your personal car, a company car, or a [business rental car](sixt:shortcodebusiness_b2b_product_rac_st), part of keeping up with your expenses will be knowing how to calculate business mileage. Business mileage is typically tax deductible, as well, with some conditions. Because the rules can be complex, understanding the basics can help you stay compliant and make informed decisions. \n\n- [What counts as business mileage?](https://www.sixt.com/business/guide/calculate-mileage/?section_id=1)\n- [Guide how to calculate business mileage](https://www.sixt.com/business/guide/calculate-mileage/?section_id=2)\n- [The importance of tracking business mileage](https://www.sixt.com/business/guide/calculate-mileage/?section_id=3)\n- [Final considerations for business mileage and travel planning](https://www.sixt.com/business/guide/calculate-mileage/?section_id=4)\n[/column]\n[column]\n[image src=\"38c6bac9-b073-4d22-aaf2-2bf21b5a3b37.jpg\" alt=\"A businessman is leaning on a rental car\"]\n[/image]\n[/column]\n[/grid]\n[/section]\n\n[section heading=\"What counts as business mileage?\" theme=\"prime\" id=\"1\"]\n[grid]\n[column]\n# What does count as business mileage?\nNot all the miles you drive will count as business mileage, so it's important to know the difference for tax purposes. The [IRS](_https://www.irs.gov/taxtopics/tc511) counts the following drives as **business mileage for tax deductions:**\n\n- Traveling to a temporary workplace (for example, your work location for the duration of your business trip)\n- Driving to meet clients or customers\n- Running work-related errands (for example, picking up/dropping off equipment, or driving to print off documents if needed) during your business trip\n[/column]\n[column]\n# What does NOT count as business mileage?\nNot all miles driven count as business mileage, though. Here's **what doesn't qualify for a business mileage tax deduction:**\n\n- Running personal errands while on a business trip (for example, going to the gym, going to see a movie, going shopping, etc.)\n- Your normal commuting mileage (driving from home to your normal workplace)\n[/column]\n[/grid]\n[/section]\n\n[section heading=\"Deep dive into how to calculate business mileage\" theme=\"default\" id=\"2\"]\n\nThere are **two ways of calculating your business mileage tax deduction**: the **standard mileage rate** and the **actual expense method**. Both have their pros and cons, so let's dive into each one.\n[grid]\n[column]\n# Standard mileage rate\n\nThis is the more straightforward method of the two. Each year, the IRS sets a flat rate per mile that can be deducted. These rates are different each year, so you'll need to keep an eye on the standard mileage rate page on the [IRS website for updates](_https://www.irs.gov/tax-professionals/standard-mileage-rates). Historically, the standard mileage rate for businesses goes up by 2 or 3 cents each year.\n\n[table cells=\"2\"]\n[cell heading=\"Year\"]\n**2023**\n[/cell]\n[cell heading=\"Business mileage rate\"]\n65.5 cents/mile\n[/cell]\n\n[cell]\n**2024**\n[/cell]\n[cell]\n67 cents/mile\n[/cell]\n\n[cell]\n**2025**\n[/cell]\n[cell]\n70 cents/mile\n[/cell]\n[/table]\n\nFor this method, you calculate your deduction by multiplying your total business miles by the flat rate for the applicable tax year. Be sure that you only include business miles in this calculation—not personal or commuting miles.\n\nIn 2025, for example, the flat rate is **$0.70 per mile**. If you drove 500 business miles in 2025, you would multiply 500 by 0.7, equalling a tax deduction of **$350**.\n\nIt's also important to note here that in order [to use the standard mileage rate](_https://www.irs.gov/taxtopics/tc510), **you must own the car or be leasing the vehicle for business purposes**.\n\n## Benefits of the standard mileage rate\n\n- If you opt for this method during the first year that you own the car, you can switch between this method and the actual expense method in the following years.\n- If you drive a lot of business miles, this method will also result in a bigger tax deduction.\n\n## Drawbacks of the standard mileage rate\n\n- Diligent recordkeeping is required to accurately determine business mileage.\n- If you don't drive a lot of business miles, you'll get a smaller deduction than you would with the actual expense method.\n\n[/column]\n[column]\n\n# Actual expenses method\n\nYour other option is to deduct your actual expenses for the vehicle overall. This method is a little more involved, as you'll need to keep records for the overall operating cost of the vehicle throughout the year. You will need to keep track of money spent, the payment method, the dates, and descriptions of each of the following things:\n\n- Gas\n- Maintenance and repairs\n- Insurance\n- Registration fees\n- Depreciation according to the total number of business miles (if you own the car)\n- Licenses\n- Oil\n- Lease payments (if applicable)\n\n**Note:** business-related **parking fees and tolls** should not be included in this total, as they are separately deductible.\n\nWith this method, you will still need to **keep track of your business miles**. If the car wasn't used solely for business, you will need to calculate what percentage of its use was for business by dividing your total business miles by your total annual miles. Once you have this percentage, multiply this by your total annual car expenses.\n\n**For example**, let's say your expenses were a total of **$5200** based on the following:\n\n- Maintenance/repairs: $1200\n- Gas: $3000\n- Insurance: $1000\n\nAnd then let's say you drove 100,000 miles total during the year, but only 60,000 of those were business miles. This means your business use percentage is **60%**. You will now multiply $5200 by 0.6, resulting in a tax deduction of **$3120**.\n\n## Benefits of the actual expense method\n\n- If you drive a normal amount of business miles, you may get a bigger tax deduction than you would with the standard mileage rate.\n- If you own the car, you can also deduct depreciation.\n\n## Drawbacks of the actual expense method\n\n- This method requires more detailed recordkeeping.\n- Calculations are more complex compared to the standard mileage rate.\n[/column]\n[/grid]\n[/section]\n\n[section heading=\"The importance of tracking business mileage for accurate tax deductions\" theme=\"prime\" id=\"3\"]\nIt's important to emphasize the need for **accurate and thorough record-keeping** for all miles driven during a business trip, including both business and personal use.\n\nRelying solely on odometer readings from the beginning and end of a trip is often insufficient. When personal mileage is included, this approach can quickly lead to inaccuracies and compliance issues. This is especially true if you're in on the latest [business travel trend](sixt:shortcodebusiness_b2b_business-travel_trends): [bleisure travel](sixt:shortcodebusiness_b2b_business-travel_bleisure).\n\n[grid]\n[column]\nSo, either use a [business travel app](sixt:shortcodebusiness_b2b_guide_travel-apps) to track your mileage and expenses, or keep a spreadsheet or even a written record. No matter what method you use, document the following information for each drive:\n\n- Number of miles driven\n- Starting point and end point\n- Purpose of the trip and how it was related to business (or if it was personal)\n\nThis will make your life so much easier when it comes to mileage deductions, helping you separate what you can and can't claim. If you end up claiming more than you should, the IRS could audit you and you could wind up with a hefty fine. To avoid potential issues, it is advisable to consult a qualified tax professional who can assess your specific situation and provide guidance based on current tax regulations.\n[/column]\n[column]\n[image src=\"f80b37c1-f845-4926-b6b5-7de5d5b88bca.jpg\" size=\"large\" alt=\"A person is looking at the SIXT app while sitting in a car\"]\n[/image]\n[/column]\n[/grid]\n[/section]\n\n[section heading=\"Final considerations for business mileage and travel planning\" theme=\"option\" id=\"4\"]\n[grid]\n[column]\nCalculating business mileage can be tricky, but it's not impossible if you're diligent about recordkeeping. Whether you decide on the standard mileage rate or the actual expense method, it's important to **check your numbers and consult a tax professional** to avoid any audits or fines from the IRS.\n\nAnd if you're looking to [save money on your business trip](sixt:shortcodebusiness_b2b_business-travel_save-money), consider signing up as a corporate customer with SIXT business.

These help to automate or semi-automate tracking your business miles and expenses accrued. You can also use a general expense tracking app, but these won't be quite as good at tracking actual miles driven.\n\n# What is the 2026 IRS standard mileage rate?\nThe 2026 IRS standard mileage rate has not yet been announced, but you can keep an eye on the [IRS website](_https://www.irs.gov/tax-professionals/standard-mileage-rates) for updates. In 2025, the standard mileage rate is $0.70. The rate has historically risen by $0.30 at most in the past years, so experts estimate that it could be around $0.72 or $0.73 in 2026.\n\n# Who can claim a business mileage deduction?\nOnly taxpayers with business income—like business owners and self-employed people—can claim a business mileage deduction. If your employer doesn't reimburse you for business mileage that you paid out of pocket, you may also be able to claim a deduction, but it's always best to check with a tax professional.\n[/accordion]\n[/section]\n\n[directus id=\"US_SEO_Footer_Business_Travel\" /]\n","breadcrumb_display_name":"How to Calculate Business Mileage","kdnr":null,"parent_id":{"page_id":"b2b_guide_hub-page","product_line":"rent-car","slug":"guide","breadcrumb_display_name":null},"hero_banner_desktop":{"filename_disk":"3bee0f96-f8e7-4a49-b400-5e6302318db5.jpg","width":3200,"height":1371},"hero_banner_mobile":{"filename_disk":"3bee0f96-f8e7-4a49-b400-5e6302318db5.jpg","width":3200,"height":1371}},"content":[{"id":"5ea79e47-ce48-48a6-bd86-0b0ba89f4bd0","type":"section","attributes":null,"childItems":[{"id":"788a5b74-0586-400b-a5fd-f4c81d08c1a1","type":"grid","attributes":null,"childItems":[{"id":"a3dd0d99-b2e8-4f0a-b486-f4163fd910bb","type":"column","attributes":null,"childItems":[{"id":"5058517a-985f-4ed8-bb4e-196589fe347f","type":"IPARAGRAPH","attributes":null,"text":[{"heading":[],"content":[{"type":"Text","content":[[{"type":"Text","content":"A key part of "},{"type":"Link","content":"business travel","url":"/business/business-travel/","target":"_self","title":"","isInternalLink":true},{"type":"Text","content":" is "},{"type":"Link","content":"calculating your expenses","url":"/business/business-travel/travel-expenses/","target":"_self","title":"","isInternalLink":true},{"type":"Text","content":".
