Posted on 1st June 2026 by Joanne Stoneman
The approved amount that employers can reimburse staff for business travel in company cars changes from 1st June 2026. What are the new rates?
HMRC has published the latest advisory fuel and electric rates (AFRs) for company cars, effective from 1 June 2026. Several rates have changed since the previous quarter. What should employers be aware of?
AFRs are used where employers reimburse employees for business travel in company cars, or where employees repay the cost of fuel used for private travel.
