Mileage reference rates,
from the source.

These government figures apply to different methods and situations. Use the “Applies to” column and linked source before choosing a rate; a preset is only a starting point.

What this table is — and isn't. These are headline government reference figures, not interchangeable deductions. In Canada, 73¢/67¢ is the 2026 limit for qualifying employer-paid allowances; self-employed people generally calculate the business-use portion of actual vehicle expenses. Other countries also offer alternative methods and eligibility rules. MyMilesAI is a recordkeeping tool, not a tax adviser. Spot a stale figure? support@mymilesai.com.

In the app

Set your country. Check the effective date.

The pre-launch app includes country, currency, and unit presets for the US, Canada, UK, Australia, Germany, France, Ireland, the Netherlands, and India. Local rules vary, and a preset is not tax advice. The public table above covers four headline methods we have re-verified against first-party sources.

Important: the settings screenshot was captured in June 2026, when the US business rate was 72.5¢. The IRS rate changed to 76¢ on July 1. The rate field is editable; confirm the rate and effective period before generating a report.
