What does tax deductible mean?

Some expenses are tax-deductible (steuerlich absetzbar). When you file a tax declaration, you can deduct those expenses. This reduces your taxable income, so you pay less income tax. It’s a good way to save money.

Tax software and tax advisors can help you file a tax declaration.
