Travel Allowance - claim for tax?



I receive a travel allowance set monthly amount from my employer. I do not have a vehicle but use a car pool to travel to work. I am taxed on this amount monthly. Can I claim this on my tax return as I have no logbook but I do travel to work about 25000 km's a year.

You need to keep a logbook in order to claim against a travel allowance.
