can you claim fuel on tax

In Australia, yes, you can claim fuel expenses on your tax, but only if you're using your vehicle for work-related purposes and not for commuting. The ATO allows you to claim either a logbook method or a cents-per-kilometre method to calculate your deduction. Keep detailed records or a logbook for at least 12 weeks to prove your claim. Remember, claiming fuel for private trips is a no-go unless you want the taxman knocking. Always check the latest ATO guidelines to avoid any nasty surprises.
