How the 2026 mileage calculator works
Enter the miles you drove and choose the mileage category that matches the trip. The calculator applies the rate for the trip date, so a 2026 trip before July 1 uses the January–June rate and a trip on or after July 1 uses the July–December rate.
The result is an estimate of the amount produced by multiplying qualifying miles by the selected IRS rate. It is not a determination that a trip qualifies, and it does not replace a mileage log or tax advice.

Keep the date, starting point, destination, business purpose, and distance for each trip. Save the exported mileage log with other records that explain the trip. A calculator can do the arithmetic, but it cannot verify the business purpose, commuting rules, or whether the standard-mileage method is available for your vehicle and situation.
Worked examples
For a business trip dated July 1 or later, 500 miles multiplied by $0.76 equals an estimated $380.00. For a business trip dated January 1 through June 30, the same 500 miles multiplied by $0.725 equals $362.50. If your records span both periods, keep the trips separated by date before adding the totals.
Continue with the right record
Use the reimbursement calculator when another party pays you using a cents-per-mile policy, or use the mileage log templates to organize the details behind the estimate. Read the method and sources page for the update process and limitations.
