I'm using a rental car – will I still be paid?
Reimbursement and Rental Vehicles – What You Need to Know
Under IRS rules, Fixed and Variable Rate reimbursement is only allowed when you're using a personal vehicle that you own or lease long-term.
If you're using a rental vehicle:
- You cannot receive reimbursement during that time if your company has provided the rental
- On a temporary use while your personal vehicle is being repaired, you are able to receive reimbursement
To stay compliant:
Always check with your company policy before using a rental vehicle for business travel.
