Employers can reimburse employees for using personal vehicles for business travel, commuting, or company-owned cars.

While South Korea does not enforce a statutory mileage rate, companies should ensure that reimbursement policies are reasonable and well-documented.

Reimbursement methods include:

  • A fixed rate per kilometre;
  • Actual fuel and maintenance cost reimbursements.

For more information on the taxability of these reimbursements, visit the National Tax Service.
