Examples of reimbursable expenses

Examples of reimbursable expenses

Supplies, materials, and travel related to the invoiced work should always be purchased as separate purchases, so that the receipt can be assigned to the invoice. We always check all your receipts as one unit. One receipt cannot be divided into applying to several different invoices.

A receipt cannot be used as a basis for deduction if it contains a single product which the Tax Administration does not accept as deductible. For example, tobacco products and alcohol on a receipt always result in the entire receipt being rejected.

See examples of reimbursable expenses below. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

The receipt is compared to the work you invoiced, timeline, and your occupation.Long-term rental space or equipment can also be used for work other than the one you are invoicing for and therefore cannot be reimbursed through us. However, you can always report such an expense in your personal taxation as an income deduction.
