Advisory fuel rates for company cars

The table below sets out the HMRC advisory fuel rates from 1 September 2023. These are the suggested reimbursement rates for employees' private mileage using their company car. 

Where the employer does not pay for any fuel for the company car these are the amounts that can be reimbursed in respect of business journeys without the amount being taxable on the employee.

Engine Size             Petrol             Diesel             LPG

1400cc or less          13p                                        10p

1600cc or less                                  12p

1401cc to 2000cc     16p (15p)                               12p

1601 to 2000cc                                14p

Over 2000cc            25p (23p)       19p (18p)        19p (18p)

Where there has been a change the previous rate is shown in brackets.

You can also continue to use the previous rates for up to 1 month from the date the new rates apply.

Note that for hybrid cars you must use the petrol or diesel rate. For fully electric vehicles the rate is 10p (9p) per mile.

It’s notable that all the changes are increases, reflecting the recent rise in fuel costs and that the fact that the cost-of-living crisis is still with us.
