Advisory fuel rates THE ADVISORY fuel rates changed with effect 1 March 2019 and apply, until further notice, to all journeys made on or after this date. For one month from the date of change, employers could choose to use either the previous or revised rates. Employers may therefore make or require supplementary payments if they so wish but are under no obligation to do either. HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) will accept that if the employer pays up to 4 pence per mile when reimbursing their employees for business travel in a fully electric company car there is no taxable profit and no class 1 National Insurance contributions (NICs) to pay. The advisory electricity rate will be published alongside advisory fuel rates and kept under review. Employers can, however, use their own rate which better reflects circumstances if, for example, the cars are more efficient, or if the cost of business travel is higher than the guideline rate.
