The government&nbsp;subsequently&nbsp;launched a review focused on ensuring workers who rely on their vehicles for work are not left out of pocket.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In a statement, Dan Tomilinson, The Exchequer Secretary to the Treasury, said&nbsp;<em>&#8216;This will represent the largest ever increase to these mileage rates, benefitting around 2 million employees and 1 million self-employed individuals, saving over \u00a3120 a year for a worker doing 6,000 business miles.&#8217;<\/em>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What Does This Mean for Employers?<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Employers can now reimburse employees for business mileage using the new 55p rate for the first 10,000 miles without creating a taxable benefit.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As the change is retrospective to 6 April 2026, employers should review mileage payments already made during April and May.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In particular, businesses&nbsp;that reimbursed mileage above the&nbsp;previous&nbsp;45p rate and subjected the excess to PAYE tax and National Insurance may need to revisit payroll calculations and consider whether adjustments are&nbsp;required.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you&nbsp;operate&nbsp;an expense policy based on HMRC approved mileage rates, now is&nbsp;a good time&nbsp;to update internal procedures and employee guidance.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Mileage Allowance Relief (MAR)<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Employees who receive less than the approved mileage rate from their employer can continue to claim tax relief on the difference through Mileage Allowance Relief (MAR).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, if an employer pays 40p per mile and the approved rate is 55p per mile, the employee may claim tax relief on the 15p shortfall.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">HMRC has confirmed that its job expenses claim forms are being updated to reflect the new rates.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Impact on the Self-Employed<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Self-employed individuals using the simplified mileage method will also&nbsp;benefit&nbsp;from the increase.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The new rates can be applied when completing 2026\/27&nbsp;Self Assessment&nbsp;tax returns, increasing the allowable deduction for business travel costs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For many sole traders and partnerships, this will provide a welcome increase in tax-deductible expenses without the need to&nbsp;maintain&nbsp;detailed records of actual vehicle running costs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>New Advisory Fuel Rates from 1 June 2026<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Separate from the AMAP changes, HMRC has also published updated Advisory Fuel Rates (AFRs) effective from 1 June 2026.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These rates apply only to employees using company cars and are used when:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Reimbursing employees for business journeys in a company car;
