A second household is recognised by the tax office, if you need to work in a different location and if, for professional reasons, you need to maintain a second home or accommodation at or near to this other location.
Expenses up to a proven amount of 1.000 Euro per month have been recognised as accommodation costs for running two households in Germany.
If you have a second household abroad, the previous rules continue to apply unchanged. The expenses for a double household must be proven in actual amount and are only recognised by the tax authorities if they do not exceed the local rent of an average apartment with a living space of up to 60 square metres, depending on location and amenities.
