Travel claim on my tax return?

I tutor for extra income and for that I need to travel to student's homes. May I claim any travel costs against the income that I declare for this? I do not have a logbook but I have the exact kilometres I travelled. Thanks!

Yes you may, however you should be using a logbook in order to prove to SARS of the travel. You need to have some record that this particular travel is for work purposes.
