The Labour government recently updated the Approved Mileage Allowance Payment (AMAP) rates in response to rising fuel costs linked to the Iran war, but the car-sharing payment rule has not been altered. HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) clarified that passenger payments apply only when drivers carry fellow employees on journeys that are also work-related for those passengers.
