On 1 July 2021 an addendum (Circular 2021/C/62) was issued to the Circular 2021/C/20 of 26 February 2021 on employer contributions for home office work.
The Circular 2021/C/20 of 26 February 2021 discusses the tax system for employer contributions for home office work. According to this Circular, employers may grant employees who structurally and regularly perform a substantial part of their working hours at home, a fixed office allowance of maximum EUR 129.48 per month (as of 1 April 2020 – previously EUR 126.94).
The maximum amount was increased to EUR 144.31 per month for the months of April, May and June 2021 (footnotes 2 and 8 of Circular 2021/C/20).
On 1 July the government decided to apply this increase as well for the months of July, August and September 2021.
