🚗 2025 IRS Standard Mileage Rates
- Business use: 70 cents per mile
- Medical purposes: 21 cents per mile
- Moving purposes (for qualified active-duty members of the Armed Forces): 21 cents per mile
- Charitable service: 14 cents per mile IRS+12IRS+12IRS+12IRS Apps+6IRS+6IRS+6
These rates are optional and can be used instead of tracking actual vehicle expenses. However, certain restrictions apply. For instance, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act suspends miscellaneous itemized deductions, including unreimbursed employee travel expenses, for tax years beginning after December 31, 2017, and before January 1, 2026. Therefore, employees cannot claim a deduction for unreimbursed travel expenses during this period. However, certain individuals, such as members of the Armed Forces reserves, state or local government officials paid on a fee basis, and certain performing artists, may still deduct these expenses as an adjustment to income .IRS+2Axios+2IRS+2IRS+1IRS+1IRS+6IRS+6IRS+6
