Dear Ministers, Clerks, and Treasurers,
Beginning on January 1, 2026, the IRS has increased the standard mileage rate for business miles to 72.5 cents per mile.
This is up 2.5 cents from the 2025 rate of $0.70 for business miles. The rate for deductible medical or moving expenses (available for active-duty members of the military) is down a half cent from 2025, at 20.5 cents. The 14 cents per mile rate for charitable organizations remains unchanged as it is set by statute.
