Did you know you can get up to 26% back from SKAT on professional cleaning services in Denmark? The servicefradrag (service tax deduction) allows every adult in your household to deduct up to 18,300 DKK per person in 2026 for cleaning, window cleaning, and other home services.
This means a couple can deduct up to 36,600 DKK combined, saving approximately 9,516 DKK in taxes. That's almost 10,000 DKK back in your pocket just for using professional cleaning services that you would pay for anyway.
How does it work? When you hire a registered cleaning company like Home Clean Service ApS, you pay for the service digitally (card, MobilePay or bank transfer — never cash). At tax time, you report the labor costs (not materials) in your årsopgørelse under field 461 (Servicefradrag). SKAT then reduces your taxable income by that amount, giving you approximately 26% back.
What cleaning services qualify? Regular home cleaning, deep cleaning, window cleaning, carpet and textile cleaning in the home, and general household maintenance. The work must be performed at your registered address (helårsbolig) or summer house (fritidsbolig), and you must live there while the work is done.
Important rules for 2026: Only labor costs qualify — not materials. Payment must be digital (no cash). You need a proper invoice with the company's CVR number. Work done in 2026 must be paid by February 28, 2027 at the latest. Each person over 18 in your household gets their own deduction.
Home Clean Service ApS provides proper invoicing with our CVR number (46336720) for all services, making it easy for you to claim your servicefradrag. We accept card payments, MobilePay and bank transfers — all qualifying payment methods.
