Finnish Tax Administration 2026 mileage reimbursement rates. Employer-paid reimbursements are tax-free up to these limits.

This mileage allowance calculator estimates the tax-free reimbursement for work driving based on the Finnish Tax Administration's 2026 rates. It is handy for employees and entrepreneurs who are reimbursed for using their own car on work trips.

How the calculator works and what it’s for▾

How the reimbursement is calculated

The reimbursement is found by multiplying the work kilometres driven by the rate paid per kilometre. The more work kilometres, the larger the tax-free reimbursement.

The allowance is meant to cover the costs of using a car, such as fuel, wear and servicing. The tax-free limit is based on the amounts confirmed each year by the Tax Administration.

What you enter and what you get

You enter the work kilometres and, if relevant, extra details such as the number of passengers or goods carried, which can affect the size of the reimbursement. The calculator shows the total amount.

The result is the tax-free reimbursement, the sum an employer can pay without withholding, as long as the trips are genuine work journeys.

Good to know

The tax-free mileage allowance applies to work driving, not the ordinary commute between home and the workplace, which is treated separately in taxation.

Always check the valid cents per kilometre in the Tax Administration's decision, because the amounts are confirmed annually and the 2026 figures may differ from earlier years.
