(2022) What is the amount of the tax reduction?

If the domestic help is employed in a regular employment relationship and you pay normal contributions to statutory social insurance, you are entitled to an exceptionally high tax reduction.

Expenses are deductible from the tax liability up to 20.000 Euro at 20 percent, maximum 4.000 Euro per year.

If the employment relationship does not exist for the entire year, the maximum amount of 4.000 Euro is not reduced by one twelfth for each full calendar month in which the conditions are not met.
