Frequently asked questions

Is a printed mileage log acceptable to the IRS?

Yes. The IRS does not require any particular format. A handwritten log is fine if it records the date, destination, business purpose and miles for each trip, kept at or near the time.

Does the Excel template work in Google Sheets?

Yes. Upload the .xlsx file to Google Drive and open it with Google Sheets; the formulas carry over.

Do the templates cost anything?

No. The templates and the online generator are free. Pro ($9 one-time) only adds a watermark-free PDF, Excel/CSV export of your logged trips and your logo.
