What is tax credit for household?
Simply tax credit means that you can benefit of it with your personal taxes.
-
When you purchase services to your home, by claiming the tax credit for household expenses you'll get 35 % of the service cost back. The credit treshold is 150 € per person.
-
You can use the tax credit for household expenses when you purchase cleaning services to your home or holiday apartment. (Note! You can also claim the tax credit if you purchase cleaning to your parents or grand parents home, but not to your kids homes.)
-
You'll get the work done with a 35 % lower price, since government backs up the difference. This means that the service provider & cleaner gets a good compensation for the work.

Jobs and opportunities for amazing cleaners 💙
The role that tax credit for household expenses plays in this important process should not be underestimated: it enables middle-income households to buy home cleaning services from responsible companies, and thus, significantly helps create jobs for people who are in a vulnerable situation in our society and for whom finding work can be very diffcult.
85 % of Freska customers say they would either reduce or completely stop the use of home cleaning services without tax credit for household expenses
Not just monetary benefits 👭
59 % of Freska customers say that they buy home cleaning services to reduce stress or to avoid arguing over cleaning at home.
When evaluating the impact of the household tax credit, euros are usually under the magnifying glass. However, it is important to also understand the immaterial benefits of the system. This equality survey shows that household chores are not evenly split between men and women. Using home services helps people, especially women, to unlock more free-time, avoid arguing over chores and focus on family, well-being, work and hobbies.
Oh, and this is also a studied fact: buying time-saving services promotes happiness.*
