Frequently asked questions

It securely connects to your Tesla account and reads your journeys automatically — no dongle and no manual entry.

Odoproof keeps a contemporaneous logbook with date, from/to, distance in km and purpose, plus a running business-kilometres total — the evidence Revenue expects for BIK, motor expenses and VAT recovery. It is not tax advice; your accountant remains your source of truth.

Tracking begins once you connect your Tesla; journeys are captured going forward. There is no reliable way to reconstruct history you didn't record.

Yes. A logbook proving your business kilometres can move you into a lower BIK band and stop Revenue's 8,000 km private default from over-charging your notional pay.

We use least-privilege access to your Tesla data, encrypt it, and never sell it. See our Security page.

Three plans: $9/mo for up to 3 vehicles, $49/mo for up to 30, and a Custom plan for more — contact contact@odoproof.com.

Yes — every paid plan includes a 7-day free trial that starts once your access is set up (within 48 hours). Cancel anytime during the trial at no charge.

No. A 0g/km Tesla sits in the lowest CO2 category (A1 for 2026) and gets a €30,000 OMV reduction for 2026, but a taxable Benefit-in-Kind still applies and its percentage still depends on your proven business kilometres.

If you cannot produce documentation of your business and private split, Revenue lets your employer assume 8,000 km of your driving are private. This typically raises your BIK, which is why a logbook proving your actual business kilometres matters.

Yes. The 20% reduction of the cash equivalent requires you to travel between 8,000 and 24,000 business km, work at least 20 hours a week, spend at least 70% of your working time away from base, and keep a logbook evidencing it.

Up to 20% of the VAT on a qualifying passenger motor vehicle, provided the car is used at least 60% for business, tested over a two-year period, with clawback if business use falls below the threshold.

Six years. Revenue can ask you to produce mileage and supporting records over a six-year look-back to substantiate BIK, motor-expense deductions and VAT recovery.
