Which training costs are deductible?
Course and seminar fees, professional literature, exam and certification costs, plus the related travel, accommodation, and meal allowances, as long as the training serves the profession you already practise.
What is the difference between further training and initial education?
Further training in a profession you already practise is deductible without limit as a business expense. Initial vocational training and a first degree only count as special expenses up to €6,000 a year and often have little tax effect.
Are online courses and coaching deductible?
Yes, as long as a clear professional connection is visible. For offerings with a personal-development or lifestyle element, the tax office looks more closely at the content, target audience, and programme.
What should I keep as evidence?
The invoice, the programme or agenda, the certificate of attendance, and for multi-day events the travel receipts. The programme is the most convincing proof of the professional purpose.
