2025 Mileage Rate Calculator
Calculate your potential tax deduction for business or medical mileage using the 2025 IRS standard mileage rates.
Understanding the 2025 Mileage Rates
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) sets standard mileage rates annually to simplify the process for taxpayers who use their vehicles for business, medical, or certain moving purposes. These rates are designed to cover the costs of operating a vehicle, including fuel, maintenance, repairs, tires, insurance, and depreciation.
2025 Standard Mileage Rates:
- Business: 67 cents per mile. This rate applies to miles driven for the ordinary and necessary costs of operating a vehicle for your trade or business.
- Medical: 21 cents per mile. This rate is for miles driven to obtain medical care. It's important to note that these medical miles are deductible as a medical expense (subject to the AGI limitation) and are not part of the standard mileage rate for business.
- Moving: 21 cents per mile. This rate applies only to members of the U.S. Armed Forces moving due to a permanent change of station. For most taxpayers, moving expenses are no longer deductible.
How to Use the Calculator:
Enter the total number of miles you drove for each category in the 2025 tax year. The calculator will then apply the respective 2025 IRS standard mileage rates to each category and provide a total potential deduction. Remember to keep accurate records of your mileage, including the dates, destinations, and business/medical purpose of each trip.
Important Considerations:
- The business mileage rate is generally the most common.
- Medical mileage is deductible as an itemized medical expense, provided you itemize deductions.
- The moving mileage rate has specific eligibility requirements.
- You can choose to use the standard mileage rate or deduct your actual vehicle expenses (gas, oil, repairs, insurance, depreciation, etc.), but you generally cannot do both for the same vehicle in the same year.
- This calculator uses the official 2025 rates. Always consult with a tax professional or refer to IRS publications for the most accurate and up-to-date information regarding your specific tax situation.
