Meal allowance for Public Administration employees – Ordinance no. 280/2022, November 18

Today, November 18, 2022, was published the update of the daily meal allowance for Public Administration employees.

The daily meal allowance, which was previously EUR 4.77 (four euros and seventy-seven cents) is retroactively increased to EUR 5.20 (five euros and twenty cents), from October 1, 2022.

This increase may also have an impact on private sector employees, since the limits of exemption from taxation under the income tax and Social Security contribution regimes for the daily meal allowance will be raised to EUR 5.20, if paid in cash, and to EUR 8.32, if paid in a meal card.
