Which travel costs are deductible?
On business trips: transport, accommodation, per-diem meal allowances, and incidental travel costs such as parking, tolls, luggage, or phone charges on the road.
How high are the domestic per-diem meal allowances?
€28 for a full day with 24 hours away, and €14 for arrival and departure days as well as absences of more than 8 hours. Trips abroad use country-specific rates.
What happens if breakfast is included in the hotel rate?
The per diem is reduced: by 20 % of the full daily rate for breakfast, so €5.60, and by 40 % each for lunch and dinner, so €11.20.
Can I claim meal allowances indefinitely?
No. At the same external workplace, per-diem meal allowances only run for the first three months. Transport and accommodation costs are not affected by that limit.
