50% tax credit
MB Nettoyage is registered as a home care services provider: cleaning and windows done at your home really only cost you half the amount invoiced.
Half of what you spend comes back to you
MB Nettoyage is registered as a personal services provider. Work carried out in your home — regular cleaning and window cleaning — qualifies for a tax credit of 50% of the amounts actually paid during the year.
The mechanism is automatic and requires nothing from you: at the start of each year we issue a tax certificate summarising the amounts paid, which you enter on your tax return. The credit applies whether or not you are liable for tax — if it exceeds the tax due, the difference is refunded to you.
Expenses count up to €12,000 per year and per household, a cap that is raised depending on your situation (a dependent child, a household member over 65). Beyond that, services remain possible, simply without any additional tax advantage.
Only work carried out in a private home qualifies: services delivered in business premises, offices or communal areas do not.
Tax credit: your questions
In practice, what does an hour of cleaning cost me after the deduction?
On an invoice for regular cleaning at home, half is returned to you: your real cost is only 50% of the amount. The same logic applies to windows done at your home.
I'm an individual: what qualifies at my home, and what doesn't?
Everything to do with the upkeep of your own home — regular cleaning, deep cleaning, windows — falls under home care services. Work carried out in business premises, offices or communal areas, on the other hand, does not qualify for the tax credit.
And for a company, a shop or a building site?
No tax break of this kind: the scheme targets individuals' homes, not business premises. Offices, shops and post-construction cleans are priced on quote, at the real price, without the 50%.
Up to what level of spending does the tax office follow?
Expenses count up to €12,000 per year and per household, a cap that can be raised depending on your situation (a dependent child, a household member over 65…). Beyond that, services remain possible, simply without any additional tax advantage.
Do I have to pay the full amount while waiting for my tax return?
By default, yes: you pay the full rate and the 50% comes back through your tax return. URSSAF's immediate advance scheme, however, lets you pay only your share at the time of payment — ask us where this scheme stands when you request your quote.
What proof do I need for my tax return?
Every year we give you a tax certificate summarising the amounts paid. You carry that figure over to your return and the 50% credit is calculated automatically — even if you pay no income tax, the amount is refunded to you.
Your cleaning at half price — we handle the rest
