Benefits of the Increased Ceiling

The raised ceiling allows households to deduct a larger portion of the costs for cleaning services, offering greater financial relief. This change makes professional cleaning services more accessible to many households, ultimately improving quality of life by reducing stress and workload.

What Services Are Covered?

The RUT deduction applies to a wide range of cleaning services, including:

  • Home cleaning
  • Moving-out cleaning
  • Window cleaning

It’s important to note that not all types of cleaning services qualify for the deduction. Consult with your cleaning company to ensure the services you use are eligible for the RUT deduction.

Economic and Practical Implications

Beyond the obvious financial benefits, the increased RUT ceiling offers practical advantages. With more deductions available, you may consider hiring cleaning services more frequently, freeing up your time and reducing daily stress.

How to Utilize the Increased RUT Deduction

To benefit from the higher ceiling:

  1. Ensure Your Cleaning Company is Registered: Verify that your cleaning provider is registered with the Swedish Tax Agency (Skatteverket) for the RUT deduction.
  2. Enjoy Instant Discounts: Once you pay for the services, your cleaning company will apply for the deduction on your behalf, and the amount will be directly deducted from your invoice.

Summary

The raised ceiling for RUT deductions on cleaning services is a positive change for many households. By taking advantage of these deductions, you can save money and improve your quality of life by reducing the burden of household chores.
