Business Mileage

Business mileage is the distance driven for work-related purposes, such as traveling from an office to a client meeting, driving between job sites, or running an errand for an employer.

For example, an employee who drives from their regular office to a customer's location and back can record those miles as business mileage. Their usual drive from home to office is a non-reimbursable commute.

Business mileage can result in employee reimbursement or a vehicle expense tax deduction for self-employed workers. Drivers must record each trip's date, mileage, destination, and business purpose.
