The lunch voucher is fully tax-deductible as operating expense. What’s more, it’s exempt from any social charges. It’s also an ideal form of complementary remuneration and a motivational tool.

An employee may legally be entitled to one lunch voucher per day of work if he or she has worked for at least four hours during the day. In many companies the allocation of lunch vouchers is in proportion to the number of hours worked as a percentage of full-time. This decision remains at the sole discretion of the employer.

The Grand Ducal Regulation of 29 December 1986 allows one lunch voucher to be granted for every day actually worked.

In practice, and with a view to administrative simplification, it is agreed to allocate a flat number of vouchers per month and per person in accordance with the following calculation:

52 weeks x 5 working days
= 260 working days
- 26 days leave
- 11 public holidays
- 5 fixed compensation days off

= 218 lunch vouchers per year
or 18 lunch vouchers per month x 12 months

The maximum amount deductible is €15. This amount was set by the Grand Ducal Regulation of 25 September 2023 amending the Grand-Ducal regulation of 29 December 1986 implementing article 115, number 21 of the law on income tax.
