FAQ
Which advertising costs are deductible?
Online ads, social media ads, print, flyers, trade-fair stands, website build and hosting, SEO, and agency fees, all fully deductible as business expenses.
Why does my Google or Meta invoice show no VAT?
Because both bill from Ireland and the reverse-charge procedure applies. You declare the VAT yourself in your VAT return and, if entitled to input VAT deduction, reclaim it in the same step.
What do small businesses need to watch with foreign advertising?
Kleinunternehmer still owe the reverse-charge VAT, but without an input VAT deduction. You need a VAT ID from the Bundeszentralamt für Steuern and must file a VAT return for it, even if you otherwise file none.
Are website costs immediately deductible?
Ongoing costs such as hosting, domain, and maintenance, yes. A substantial new build may qualify as an intangible asset depreciated over several years; for smaller amounts it is usually recorded immediately in practice.
