SARS requesting private km and logbook for everyday of the year in addition to business travel?

By Marc Sevitz · Updated 18 February 2014

I'm claiming tax on my travel allowance and submitted my logbook based on the SARS logbook. Earlier today I was notified that my travel claim is disallowed. When I called them they said I should add my personal travel and mileage for everyday of that tax year. Is this normal? I thought SARS was only interested in business travel.

You need to include your total travel so the opening and closing km's and then include the personal as the difference between that and the business portion.
