Here are a couple of references I had no time for earlier. The terminology is used in the EU for an allowance which would appear to be similar to the Entfernungspauschale:
http://www.europarl.eu.int/registre/organes/bureau/proces_ve...
"Members shall be paid a distance allowance for each outward and return leg of the journey..."
http://www.labmeps-emids.fsnet.co.uk/allow.htm
"an amount laid down by the Bureau according to the distance by two-way journey between the place of residence and the place of work, known as the distance allowance"
btw: I also considered the KPMG translation, but found it too much of a mouthful for my context.
