Number of arrival and departure days
Enter here the number of arrival and departure days.
The meal allowance granted differs according to the duration of your absence and the federal state you live in. The absence usually begins when you leave your primary home and ends when you return there. The reason for the absence does not matter. However, you can only deduct flat-rate sums for meals for the first three months after moving into your second home at the place of employment.
When the two households are in Germany, the meal allowance for a full calendar day is 28 Euro. A meal allowance of 14 Euro per day is granted on the arrival and departure days (journeys home), irrespective of the duration of absence.
