Deduct meal deliveries

Deductibility
70 %

Fiscal risk

Even a delivery from Lieferando can be a business dinner.

When you invite a business partner or customer to dinner in your office, from a tax point of view, it is like hosting a meal in a restaurant. You can therefore deduct 70% of the entertainment costs as business expenses. The invoiced sales tax is also fully deductible as input tax. However, hospitality at your home is not deductible. Of course, you always have to prove the professional character of the costs and the same rules apply as for the entertainment in a restaurant.

🔨 Delivery has to happen at your work space. So make sure you make a difference between living and workspace in your food delivery app.
