The IRS standard mileage rate for business driving in 2026 is 72.5 cents per mile for January 1 through June 30, and 76 cents per mile from July 1 through December 31 — a split year. The full archive below runs from 2000 to today, one row per rate period, so split years (2026, 2022, 2011, 2008, 2005) get split rows. The Mileage Deduction Calculator runs the 2026 pair on your own miles.
Standard mileage rates, 2000–present
All figures are cents per mile. Miles are always deducted at the rate in effect when they were driven — in a split year, the two halves of the year are computed separately and added.

Sources: IRS “Standard mileage rates” table (irs.gov) for 2011–2026, checked October 27, 2026; IRS Notices, Announcements, and Revenue Procedures as listed per row. Rows for 2000–2010: the original Revenue Procedures predate the IRS's online rates table, so those rows are compiled from published histories of the IRS standard mileage rates, principally the Congressional Research Service history (which reproduces the IRS references per period), cross-checked against a second published compilation of the same IRS releases, checked October 27, 2026.
Reading the archive
Split years are real, and they matter. The IRS normally sets one rate per year, but it has raised the rate mid-year five times in this archive — 2005 (from September 1, after Hurricane Katrina), 2008, 2011, 2022, and 2026 (each from July 1). A calculator or table that shows a single rate for one of those years is wrong for half of it.
The charitable rate never moves with the others. It is set by statute — § 170(i) of the Internal Revenue Code — at 14 cents per mile, and it has stayed there for the entire archive. One exception to note in the table's span: temporary law allowed a higher rate for certain Hurricane Katrina relief driving in 2005–2006; the 14¢ figure shown is the standard statutory rate that applied to charitable driving generally.
The medical/moving column has a modern caveat. Since 2018, the moving-expense deduction has been suspended for most taxpayers; the medical/moving rate now applies mainly to medical driving and to moves by active-duty military members under orders. The rate itself is still published every year, which is why it stays in the table.
Business mileage is deducted by the self-employed on Schedule C at the rate for the period driven, and parking fees and tolls come on top of it. Whatever the year, the deduction stands or falls on the log behind it — dates, destinations, business purpose, and miles, recorded at or near the time of the trip (IRS Publication 463).
