The next publication of AFRs is due on 1<sup>st</sup> September.</p><p> </p><p>AFRs are an administrative easement and increasing the frequency of review would create administrative burdens for employers as well as HMRC.</p><p> </p><p>AFR rates are not mandatory, and employers and employees can agree to use different rates to reflect scenarios in which a car is more fuel efficient or where the cost of business travel is higher.</p> answering member constituency Faversham and Mid Kent answering member printed Helen Whately question first answered 27/06/2022 09:56:35 answering member 4527 label Biography information for Helen Whately
