Mileage Allowance Payments (MAPs) for employees


2020/21

    • MAPs represent the maximum tax free mileage allowances an employee can receive from their employer for using their own vehicle for business journeys.
    • An employer is allowed to pay an employee a certain amount of MAPs each year without having to report payments to HMRC.
    • If the employee receives less than the statutory rate, tax relief can be claimed on the difference.
