HMRC AMAP rates 2026/27 Updated
| Vehicle | First 10,000 miles | After 10,000 miles |
| Car or van (incl. EV & hybrid) | 55p per mile | 25p per mile |
| Motorcycle | 24p per mile | 24p per mile |
| Bicycle | 20p per mile | 20p per mile |
| Passenger supplement | +5p per mile per passenger |
The car and van rate increased from 45p to 55p from 6 April 2026 — the first increase since 2011. The same AMAP rates apply to electric and hybrid vehicles when the vehicle is personally owned.
Company EV Advisory Electric Rates (from June 2026)
| Charging type | Rate per mile |
| Home charging | 7p per mile |
| Public charging | 15p per mile |
Advisory Electric Rates apply only to company-owned electric vehicles. For personally owned EVs, use the standard 55p AMAP rate.
What counts as a business mile?
Business miles include travel to temporary workplaces, client visits, and trips between different work locations. Commuting from home to your regular workplace does not qualify and cannot be claimed.
Mileage Allowance Relief (MAR)
If your employer reimburses you at less than the HMRC AMAP rate, you can claim Mileage Allowance Relief on the shortfall. For example, if you drove 5,000 business miles and your employer paid 25p per mile, you can claim relief on the remaining 30p per mile (5,000 × £0.30 = £1,500). As a basic-rate taxpayer, this saves £300 in income tax.
What if my employer pays more than the HMRC rate?
Employers are not obliged to reimburse at the HMRC AMAP rate — they can pay more or less. However, the AMAP rate is the maximum that can be paid tax-free. If your employer reimburses you above the AMAP rate (for example, 60p per mile when the HMRC rate is 55p), the excess — 5p per mile in this case — is treated as taxable income and must be reported to HMRC. You should check with your employer or a qualified accountant if you are unsure whether your reimbursement rate creates a tax liability.
