About this mileage reimbursement form

When employees use their own car or two-wheeler for work, they’re usually paid a fixed rate per kilometre or mile. A mileage form logs each trip (date, start and end points, purpose, odometer readings and distance) and multiplies the total by the agreed rate.

A careful log is also what tax authorities expect if mileage is claimed as a business expense. Estimate fuel costs separately with the fuel cost calculator.

What’s on the mileage reimbursement form

The template has 4 sections and 14 questions. Every one can be renamed, moved or deleted.

  • Claimant: Name; Employee ID; Vehicle (choose one: Car, Two-wheeler); Registration number; Period from; to
  • Trip log: Trips table (Date, From, To, Purpose, Odometer start, Odometer end, Distance)
  • Claim: Total distance; Rate per km or mile; Total claim; Claimant signature with date
  • Approval: Decision (choose one: Approved, Not approved); Approved by; Approver signature with date

Tips

  • Record the odometer at the start and end of each trip, not just the distance.
  • Don’t claim your normal commute from home to the office.
  • Write the rate per km or mile set by your company policy.
