Business Mileage Tracker

Mileage Tracker

Mileage is one of those areas I often see overlooked.

Sometimes it isn’t considered at all.
Other times, fuel and vehicle costs are put through instead — when mileage would usually be the correct approach.

If you’re using your personal vehicle for business journeys, you’ll generally record mileage rather than fuel, insurance or servicing costs (unless the business owns the vehicle).

This simple tracker helps you log those journeys clearly and consistently, so you can record the expense clearly and reduce your taxable profit where appropriate.

And mileage tends to add up more than people expect.

Business journeys can include:

  • Visiting a client
  • Attending networking or industry events
  • Travelling to suppliers
  • Popping to the post office
  • Collecting materials or work supplies

(Ordinary commuting to a regular workplace doesn’t count.)

The template can also be used for employees who use their own vehicles for work, so mileage can be reimbursed and recorded correctly.

Keeping a clear log simply means you’re not leaving allowable expenses behind — and you have a record if ever needed. This also includes bikes not just cars!
