Entertainment Expenses
                       
Direct Sellers frequently are required to entertain for business purposes and for that reason the DSA recommends you familiarize your company with those expenses which can be claimed at 100%, those at 50% and those which incur Fringe Benefit tax liability.

We recommend that you obtain a copy of the Inland Revenue Fringe benefit guide (IR 409) Updated versions are always available from the IRD web site www.ird.govt.nz

You may claim entertainment expenses and staff perks eg company cars, at 100% but you will be liable for fringe benefits tax on those claims

If you wish to avoid the fringe benefit tax then you may need to claim such expenses at a lower rate and/or make other actions as outlined in our Fringe Benefits Tax document.
