Please note: the deemed cost method requires the fixed cost, fuel cost, and maintenance cost figures from the current SARS Rate per Kilometre Schedule for your vehicle's value band — these change annually, so look them up fresh each year rather than reusing last year's figures. No fuel or maintenance cost may be claimed if you didn't personally bear that cost (e.g. a fuel card or maintenance plan). Home-to-work travel is always private, never business. A full logbook is required to support this deduction.
