⛽ HMRC Advisory Fuel Rates Update — Effective 1 March 2026!

HMRC has published the latest Advisory Fuel Rates (AFRs) for company car users. If your business reimburses employees for business mileage, make sure you're using the correct rates to stay compliant!

Here's a summary of the current rates:

🚗 Petrol
• Up to 1,400cc — 12p per mile
• 1,401cc to 2,000cc — 14p per mile
• Over 2,000cc — 22p per mile

🚙 Diesel
• Up to 1,600cc — 12p per mile
• 1,601cc to 2,000cc — 13p per mile
• Over 2,000cc — 18p per mile

🔵 LPG (slight decrease this quarter)
• Up to 1,400cc — 10p per mile
• 1,401cc to 2,000cc — 12p per mile
• Over 2,000cc — 19p per mile

⚡ Electric Vehicles
• Home charging — 7p per mile
• Public charging — 15p per mile (up 1p from last quarter!)

🔁 Hybrid vehicles are treated as petrol or diesel for AFR purposes.

Remember — using the correct rates means reimbursements are tax and NI free for your employees. Using the wrong rates could lead to unexpected tax liabilities!

💼 Are you VAT registered? Are you on the RIGHT VAT scheme for your business?

Many business owners don't realise that choosing the correct VAT scheme can save time, reduce admin and even save money! At Accountify Chartered Accountants, we help businesses navigate the different VAT schemes to find the best fit for them.

Here's a quick breakdown of the main VAT schemes available:

📌 Standard VAT Scheme – You pay VAT on sales and reclaim VAT on purchases. Best for businesses with significant input VAT to reclaim.

📌 Flat Rate Scheme – Pay a fixed percentage of your turnover to HMRC. Great for small businesses with low VAT-able expenses as it simplifies the process.

📌 Cash Accounting Scheme – You only pay VAT when your customer pays you, not when you invoice. Perfect for businesses with cash flow concerns.

📌 Annual Accounting Scheme – Make advance VAT payments throughout the year and submit just one return annually. Ideal for businesses that prefer less frequent filing.

📌 Retail Schemes – Designed specifically for retailers who make lots of small sales and need a simpler way to calculate VAT.

📌 Margin Scheme – For businesses selling second-hand goods, art, antiques or collectibles — you only pay VAT on your profit margin, not the full selling price.

Not sure which scheme is right for you? That's where we come in! 😊

We'll review your business and make sure you're on the most tax-efficient VAT scheme for your circumstances.
