Use a car for work or business – either in your own name or through a company?

A simple 12-week logbook plus the right odometer readings can make a big difference at tax time.

✅ What to record in your logbook
- Date of each trip
- Start & end odometer readings
- Total km
- Reason for the trip (work/business)

📅 Odometer readings – when to do them

Individuals (using the car for work):
- Take an odometer reading at:
- The start and end of your 12-week logbook period, and
- 1 July and 30 June each year (start/end of the financial year).

Companies (including directors/employees with a company car):
- Take an odometer reading at:
- The start and end of the 12-week logbook period, and
- The start and end of the FBT year (1 April – 31 March).

❗ Why it matters
- Individuals: Supports your work-related car deduction and can help maximise it.
- Companies: Helps calculate business vs private use and may reduce FBT on company cars.

No logbook + no odometer readings often = limited claim or higher FBT.

Thank you for a fantastic year and I appreciate all the support. Without my clients, I wouldn’t be able to accomplish my dream of having my own business.
