Tax Free Vouchers Valued up to € 1,000.

Library of Knowledge No. 63

Small Benefit Exemption

From 2022 employers can give employees and company directors (once on the payroll) up to two small benefits, tax free, each year.

These benefits must not be in cash and the combined value of the two benefits cannot exceed €1,000.

If more than two benefits are given in a year, only the first two may qualify for tax free status. Unused allowance amounts cannot be carried over.

Tax-free vouchers or benefits can be used only to purchase goods or services. They cannot be redeemed for cash.

Note: A single benefit of up to € 1,000 may be provided to an employee tax free. If a single benefit exceeds € 1,000 in value, the full value of the benefit is subject to tax. Where two benefits are provided, the combined value of those cannot exceed € 1,000
