How is the deductible limit for outstanding balance insurance (single premium) calculated?
The deductible limit for outstanding balance insurance (single premium) is calculated as follows:
- €6,000 + €1,200 per child in the household
- an additional 8% for each year after the policyholder reaches the age of 30.
Here's an example:
A family of 4:
- The mother, aged 38,
- Father, aged 40
- Two children
They can deduct up to €24,960 in total.
Explanation:
Increase for the father aged 40 :
- 6 000€ + 2 x 1 200 € = 8 400 €
- 8% x 10 x €8,400 = €6,720
Increase for the 38-year-old mother :
- 6 000 €
- 8% x 8 x €6,000 = €3,840
Good to know! Single-premium outstanding balance insurance is deductible every 5 years on your Luxembourg tax return for your main residence. This allows you to cover part of a mortgage today and another part in 5 years' time, while taking full advantage of the tax benefits.
