What is the IRS standard mileage rate for 2025?

For 2025 the IRS standard mileage rates are 70¢ per mile for business, 21¢ per mile for medical and (Armed Forces) moving, and 14¢ per mile for charitable driving (IRS Notice 2025-5).

How do I calculate my mileage deduction for 2025?

Multiply your business miles by 70¢. Example: 12,000 business miles in 2025 = $8,400.00. The standard rate already covers gas, oil, repairs, insurance, registration and depreciation, so you don't deduct those separately when using it.

Can W-2 employees deduct unreimbursed mileage?

Generally no. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act suspended unreimbursed employee business expenses (a miscellaneous 2%-of-AGI itemized deduction) for 2018 through 2025 (IRC §67(g)). Exceptions include Armed Forces reservists, qualified performing artists, and fee-basis state/local government officials. The self-employed are unaffected.

Standard mileage rate or actual expenses — which is better?

The standard mileage rate is simpler and often better for fuel-efficient cars with high mileage; the actual-expense method (depreciation, lease, gas, repairs, insurance × business-use %) can be larger for expensive vehicles. If you want the option to switch later, use the standard rate in the first business year for that vehicle.

The IRS standard mileage rate is the simplest way to deduct vehicle costs: multiply your business miles by a set cents-per-mile figure instead of tracking every fuel, repair and depreciation receipt. For 2025 the IRS standard mileage rates are 70¢/mile for business, 21¢/mile for medical and (Armed Forces) moving, and 14¢/mile for charitable driving (IRS Notice 2025-5). Unreimbursed employee mileage is not deductible for most W-2 workers for 2018–2025 (IRC §67(g)) — this rate applies to the self-employed and certain exceptions.

Enter your miles below and pick the purpose and tax year. The calculator multiplies your miles by the official IRS cents-per-mile rate and shows the dollar deduction (or reimbursement). Everything runs in your browser — no miles, amounts, or personal data are transmitted.

Important: These are the IRS standard mileage rates. You can instead deduct actual vehicle expenses, but you generally must choose the standard rate in the first year you use a car for business to keep that option later. Verify the current figure against IRS Notice 2025-5 on irs.gov.
