The IRS standard mileage rate is what many employers use, but your employer's policy sets the rate you are paid. Commuting between home and your regular workplace is not business mileage.

How it works

Reimbursement for each trip = miles × the rate per mile on the trip date. The IRS business rate for 2026 is 72.5 cents a mile for January 1 to June 30 and 76 cents for July 1 to December 31. Each trip is rounded to the cent, then the trips are added.

Worked examples

100 miles on June 30, 2026: 100 × $0.725 = $72.50. 100 miles on July 1, 2026: 100 × $0.76 = $76.00.
12.3 miles in March 2026: 12.3 × $0.725 = $8.9175, rounded to $8.92.
An employer rate of $0.60 a mile and 250 miles: 250 × $0.60 = $150.00.

Common questions

Why did the 2026 IRS rate change in July?

The IRS raised the business rate from 72.5 to 76 cents a mile for miles driven on or after July 1, 2026, citing fuel prices. The calculator uses the rate on each trip's date.

Does my employer have to pay the IRS rate?

The IRS rate is a tax figure, not a pay rule. Your employer's policy sets the rate, and some states require reimbursement of work expenses. Enter your employer's rate if it is different.

Does my drive to work count?

No. Commuting between home and your regular place of work is personal, not business mileage. Trips between work sites or to clients usually count.
