Car mileage payments - NICs oddity
Providing that the employer reimburses an employee at the AMAPs rates above there is no PAYE or NICs liability. However, the tax-free amounts are different for PAYE and NICs.
Passengers, motorbikes and bicycles
The rates are the same whatever the mileage.
| Claimant | Rate per mile |
| Passenger | 5p |
| Motorcycle | 24p |
| Cyclist | 20p |
