Increased Tax Free Allowances for Mileage & Subsistence Expenses

22/05/2017 By O'Donovan Keyes & Barrett

The Civil Service mileage and subsistence rates were revised with effect from 1 April 2017.

While business travel between 1 January 2017 and 31 March 2017 will not be affected by the introduction of these new rates, business travel from 1 January 2017 will, however, count towards aggregated mileage for the year.

Reduced mileage rates are payable for journeys associated with an individual’s job but not solely related to the performance of those duties.

Examples include:

  • Attendance at confined promotion competitions.
  • Attendance at approved courses of education.
  • Attendance at courses or conferences.
  • Return visits home at weekends during periods of temporary transfer.
