From time to time, working people have to incur expenses that their employer does not pay. Many costs can be deducted in the tax return, which in some cases allows families to save a lot of money.

There are essentially four different types of deductible travel expenses: travel, accommodation, incidental travel costs and travel cancellation insurance. Private pleasures such as costs for the minibar, massages or pay TV are not tax deductible. If you use public transport for work, you can claim the flat rate travel allowance of 30 cents per kilometer.
