Form book Fahrtenbuch AVERY 223-5 A5, 40 sheets, German market

AVERY Zweckform Fahrtenbuch model 223-5 is an A5-format form book with 40 sheets created for use in Germany, Luxembourg, Austria and Switzerland. Each sheet contains preprinted trip log templates that allow recording dates, start and end mileage, purpose of the trip and other essential journey details. The compact A5 size fits into glove compartments or document folders, offering a physical, paper-based option for vehicle documentation, expense tracking and supporting tax records when digital logs are not used.

Advantages

The form book provides a standardized, preformatted layout that simplifies consistent recording of business journeys and private mileage. Its A5 size and 40-sheet capacity make it portable while providing enough pages for regular use over several months. The printed fields reduce transcription errors and help maintain clear, legible entries for expense or tax purposes.

Suitable for

• Drivers who need a paper travel log for tax or accounting documentation
• Small business owners and freelancers recording business trips
• Company car users required to document private and business mileage
• Fleet vehicles where a simple, uniform log format is preferred

When it may not be suitable

This paper form book is not suitable for users who prefer digital or automated tracking of trips, such as GPS-based apps that log routes and mileage automatically. It may also be less convenient for very high-mileage drivers who require larger-capacity logs or integrated fleet-management solutions.

Key specifications

• Format: A5
• Number of sheets: 40
• Preprinted trip log fields: date, start/end mileage, purpose of trip and related entry fields
• Designed for use in: Germany, Luxembourg, Austria, Switzerland
• Binding: form book style suitable for writing while stationary

How to use

Open the form book to a fresh sheet and enter the required information for each journey: date, starting and ending odometer readings, purpose or destination, and any additional notes required for your records. Use one line or one sheet per trip according to the printed layout. Keep the book stored in the vehicle or a safe place and present it to your accountant or tax adviser when needed. Ensure entries are made contemporaneously or as soon as practical to preserve accuracy and evidentiary value.

What to consider before purchase

• Whether a paper logbook meets local tax authority requirements for mileage documentation
• Frequency of use and whether 40 sheets provide sufficient capacity for your needs
• Preference for physical documentation versus digital tracking solutions

Usage recommendations

For reliable records, record each trip immediately after completion, keep the book in the vehicle or with travel-related documents, and back up critical mileage data with receipts or additional notes when relevant for expense claims or tax audits.
