A salesman is working from home. His territory is the whole of the UK. Working from home will overcome a cultural diffrence between him and other salesmen who are office based and working in a different division. Also, it will save a small fortune in fule as he is located centrally.

Will travel to the office in the South be classified as business mileage? Having read publication 490 i'm none the wiser!

Thanks

I suggest his home is genuinely his place of work, and that travel to the head office in the South (and to any northern/scottish/etc office) would be considered business mileage as would travel to any client etc.
