Mileage planning estimate

Use this estimate to compare years, purposes, and custom-rate assumptions before you file. Final eligibility and documentation requirements still depend on your situation.

  • Keep a mileage log (date, purpose, start/end, miles).
  • Moving-related mileage deductions can be limited to specific cases.
  • If you use a custom rate, treat it as a planning assumption rather than a filing rate.

Frequently Asked Questions

How should I use this mileage estimate?+
Use this calculator to estimate a standard-mileage deduction and keep your records aligned before filing. Final eligibility and documentation requirements still depend on your tax rules and facts, so confirm them before you claim the deduction.
Where do the standard mileage rates come from?+
The IRS publishes standard mileage rates annually. Rates change by year and purpose. Confirm the official number before filing.
What counts as business mileage?+
Trips to client sites, business errands, and work-related travel. Daily commuting is treated differently. Keep a mileage log and check IRS guidance for your situation.
Do I have to use the standard mileage rate?+
No. The IRS also allows an actual-expenses method. This calculator focuses on the standard rate so you size the deduction quickly before deciding which method to document.
Why are there different rates for business, medical, and charity?+
Each rate reflects different cost assumptions and statutory requirements. The charity rate is fixed by statute and lower than the business rate.
Do moving miles qualify?+
In the U.S., moving-related mileage deductions are limited to specific cases (such as certain active-duty military moves). Check official guidance to see if you qualify.
What mileage records should I keep?+
Keep a log that includes dates, destination, business purpose, and miles driven (plus supporting receipts where relevant). Good records help support your deduction if you claim it.
