Are Workwear & Work shoes tax deductible?

Certainly, workwear, work shoes and company clothing can be tax deductible.
However, it is important that the workwear meets the specific conditions set by the Inland Revenue.
 
The Inland Revenue uses some criteria to determine whether workwear is considered tax deductible. This involves looking at the following aspects:
 
  • Obligation: The workwear must have been made mandatory by your employer as part of your job or because of safety regulations.
  • Logo or company name: The workwear must have a logo or company name that is visible while performing your job.
  • Not suitable for private use: The workwear must be clearly and exclusively suitable to be worn during your work. If the clothing is also suitable for private use, for example due to a neutral appearance, it will not be considered tax deductible.
It is advisable to consult the Tax Administration's specific rules and conditions or consult your employer to ensure that your work clothes, work shoes and company clothing are tax deductible. That way, you can take full advantage of the tax benefits that may be involved.
