IRS Raises Mileage Rates as Gas Prices Increase

WASHINGTON—The Internal Revenue Service raised the mileage rate used for calculating business tax deductions for vehicle use, making a rare midyear change in response to increasing gasoline prices.

The new rate for the final six months of 2022 will be 62.5 cents a mile, up from 58.5 cents a mile, which itself was a 2.5 cent increase from 2021.

The IRS also increased the rate for moving costs and medical expenses to 22 cents a mile from 18 cents a mile. The rate for charitable driving remains at 14 cents a mile because it is set in the law.
