body: Im in the UK. I drive my car on business insurance for work. I claim mileage with details of my car e.g. engine size. I've been told that in future I must submit fuel receipts even though I am not claiming the full fuel cost. I was told it was to prove to HMRC that tax was paid on the fuel. I don't understand this as a fuel receipt wouldn't prove which car the fuel was in or used for the claimed journey. Is this a legal requirement?
  
  
  **update** I've been told it's "to enable the reclaim of VAT on such expenditure by the company"
