How the RUT deduction works for cleaning and other services
How the RUT deduction works for cleaning and other services
When you hire a company for household services, such as cleaning, you can take advantage of the RUT deduction. This means you receive a tax reduction of 50% on the labor costs, provided you meet the requirements set by the Swedish Tax Agency.
As our customer, you don’t need to worry about the administration, we handle everything with the Tax Agency. Your invoice will show the RUT deduction directly, so you can clearly see the amount you need to pay for our services.
New rules for RUT and ROT deductions in 2024
From July 1, 2024, the Swedish Parliament has decided to raise the cap for RUT and ROT deductions. You can now receive up to 75,000 SEK in RUT deductions and 75,000 SEK in ROT deductions per person per year, allowing for a maximum tax reduction of 150,000 SEK. However, your ability to use these deductions depends on how much tax you’ve paid during the year, as well as any other tax reductions, such as those for green technology.
What services are covered by the RUT deduction?
The RUT deduction can be applied to various household services, including:
- Home cleaning
- Deep cleaning
- Move-out cleaning
- Window cleaning
- Moving assistance and packing
- Minor handyman tasks, such as installing curtain rods
- Laundry
- Ironing
- Gardening
The RUT deduction only applies to labor costs, not materials or other expenses such as travel costs.
