mileage claim

ozdemirozgur

Hi,

my home is in London and working in oxford. i am office based but travelling 2-3 days a week. company agreed that I can claim my mileages when I travel from home to office. any idea what should be the rate ? i think, they said it is 13p but I think it should be more than it?

thanks, Ozgur

You've posted on the wrong board.

Your employer can pay you whatever they want as a mileage rate. The only thing you can do is reclaim the tax back on your mileage at the end of a tax year, I think the form is a P73

There is no fixed rate the company can set their own rates. If they are allowing you to claim from your home to your normal place of work then whatever they pay you is a bonus as this is usually classed as commuting and not business miles.

If you are travelling from the office to visit other locations on business then, in addition to the 13p per mile from your employer, you can claim tax relief. This is based on 45p per mile for the first 10,000 miles then 25p per mile. You don't actually get this figure but you would get tax relief on the difference of the 45p and 13p. This all assumes you are using your own car for work and this does not apply for company cars
