Many health professionals use specific clothing as part of their activity, and osteopaths are obviously one of them. Indeed, it is not uncommon for an osteopath to put on a gown when starting their day, but this represents an additional cost.
The question is therefore the following: how to integrate the expenses of this type of material in the BNC (Non Commercial Profits) accounts of an osteopath in order to pay less taxes and optimize their taxation?
Deduct clothing costs when you are an osteopath
As we saw in a previous article, it is possible to integrate many costs in the expenses of the firm, in order to reduce its taxable profit (and consequently, its tax). The sine qua non is the following: any charge must be necessary for the performance of the professional activity and justified.
Therefore, it is possible for an osteopath to fully deduct the purchase of professional clothing, such as gowns, clogs, etc.
Small bonus: it is also possible to deduct part of the purchase of civilian clothing for professional use (the tax administration tolerates the deduction of this garment up to 30%).

Can we deduct the cost of washing professional clothes?
The answer is yes ! But beware, this charge is no exception to the basic rule: a laundering package (for example) only deductible for professional laundry (especially the blouse).
Therefore, it is essential to keep a record of these charges, such as an invoice or an estimate made with a laundry for professional laundry!
So, if you are an osteopath in BNC, don’t forget that a large part of your expenses are deductible, so why not? You can also benefit from significant cost reductions thanks to the partnerships signed by Oostéo (chartered accountant at 55 € / month, online appointment booking at 20 € / month, examination sheets, RCP, etc.)
