Real Example: Bi-weekly Cleaning (€150/visit)
Your actual annual cost: €2,685 instead of €3,900. To reach the maximum €1,600 credit, you'd need to spend €5,000+ on cleaning per year.
Finland's household tax deduction gives you 35% back on cleaning service costs. The calculation is simple: take your total cleaning costs, multiply by 35%, then subtract the €150 threshold (paid once per year). The maximum credit is €1,600 per person per year. To reach this maximum, you'd need to spend at least €5,000 on eligible cleaning services annually.
The €150 threshold (omavastuu) is subtracted from your calculated tax credit once per calendar year, not from each invoice. For example: if your annual cleaning costs are €1,000, the calculation is (€1,000 × 35%) - €150 = €200 tax credit. After your first few cleanings cover this threshold, every subsequent cleaning that year gives you the full 35% back.
Yes! Each person can claim up to €1,600 in tax credits on their individual tax returns, meaning couples can receive up to €3,200 combined per year. However, each person must pay their own €150 threshold. If one spouse's credit exceeds €1,600, the Tax Administration automatically transfers the excess to the other spouse's taxes.
Eligible: All labor costs for cleaning services performed at your home or vacation home, including VAT. This covers regular cleaning, deep cleaning, one-time cleaning, move-out cleaning, oven cleaning, fridge cleaning, and sauna cleaning.
Not eligible: Materials, supplies, travel costs, and administrative service fees cannot be deducted. This is why we keep our pricing transparent with no hidden fees — your entire invoice qualifies for the deduction.
Yes! HyväCleaning is registered in the ennakkoperintärekisteri (prepayment register), which is required for customers to claim the household tax deduction. We provide detailed invoices showing labor costs and can supply an annual summary for your tax return. You can verify our registration at ytj.fi.
You can claim the household tax deduction through OmaVero (the Finnish Tax Administration's online service). You'll need our business ID 3598125-9, the date of service, and the amount paid for labor. You can either add it to your tax card during the year to lower your withholding rate, or claim it when you file your annual tax return. Keep your invoices — Vero may ask to see them.

How much does deep cleaning cost in Helsinki compared to regular cleaning?
Deep cleaning uses the same hourly rates as regular cleaning - you just need more hours for the extra work:
The pricing difference:
- Regular cleaning: Uses your subscription rate (€37.90-€45.90/hour) for 2-3 hours
- Deep cleaning: Uses the one-time rate (€49.90/hour) but takes 4-6 hours for thorough work
- Studio (35m²): 4 hours × €49.90 = €199.60 (one-time deep clean)
- 1-bedroom (50m²): 5 hours × €49.90 = €249.50 (one-time deep clean)
- 2-bedroom (70m²): 6 hours × €49.90 = €299.40 (one-time deep clean)
- 3-bedroom (90m²): 7-8 hours × €49.90 = €349.30-€399.20 (one-time deep clean)
What makes deep cleaning take longer:
- Inside cabinets and drawers
- Baseboards and trim detailed cleaning
- Deep oven and appliance cleaning
- Behind and under furniture
- Detailed bathroom grout cleaning
- Light fixtures and ceiling fans
Money-saving tip: After an initial deep clean, maintain with regular cleanings. Once your Helsinki home is deep cleaned, weekly service at €37.90/hour keeps it in great condition without needing frequent deep cleans!
