How it works

Receipt to tax return. Automatic.

01

Log the expense

Drop a receipt photo, enter the amount, or log a mileage trip. TAV categorises it and calculates the VAT automatically.

02

Link to a client

If the expense is billable, assign it to a client. It appears as a line item on their next invoice. No manual copy-paste.

03

Reclaim at tax time

TAV tracks which expenses are VAT-reclaimable and tax-deductible. At quarter end, export everything your tax return needs.

Mileage. Receipts.
All in one place.

Log business trips with distance and rate — TAV computes the deductible amount using official government rates. EU: €0.23/km. US: $0.70/mi. Updated automatically.

Drop receipt photos from your camera roll. TAV attaches them to the expense record. At year-end, everything is organised and ready for your accountant.

FAQ

Common questions

How does expense tracking work in TAV?

Create an expense manually or from a bank transaction. Enter the amount, category, and optional client. TAV calculates VAT based on the category and your country. Attach a receipt photo if you have one. The expense is stored with full audit trail — date, category, VAT amount, receipt, and billing status. At invoice time, select billable expenses to include as line items.

Can I upload receipt photos?

Yes. Drag and drop receipt photos or PDFs directly onto the expenses page. TAV stores them alongside the expense record. You can also batch-upload — drop multiple receipts and TAV opens a form for each one sequentially. If you use the AI assistant, snap a photo in the chat and TAV creates the expense with the receipt attached.

How does mileage tracking work?

Toggle to mileage mode when creating an expense. Enter the distance in kilometres or miles. TAV multiplies by the official government rate — €0.23/km in the EU, $0.70/mi in the US. The deductible amount is calculated and stored. Add a description (like client visit, Amsterdam to Utrecht) for your records. Mileage expenses are tax-deductible and appear on your tax export.

How does VAT reclaim work for expenses?

Each expense category has a VAT reclaimable flag. When you log an expense in a reclaimable category, TAV calculates the input VAT at the standard rate for your country. At quarter end, the tax module pulls total reclaimable VAT from your expenses and subtracts it from output VAT on your invoices. The difference is what you owe. This flows directly into your BTW aangifte or VAT return export.

Can I bill expenses to clients?

Yes. When creating an expense, assign it to a client. The expense shows as unbilled in your list. When you create an invoice for that client, TAV includes unbilled expenses as line items alongside your time entries. The expense is marked as billed so it is never double-charged. Your client sees the expense on the invoice PDF with a clear description and amount.

Every receipt tracked.
Every cent reclaimed.
