Subsistence Comparator & Travel Tracker

Key Irish Rail Expense & Subsistence Claim Principles: Audit Guidance
1. Subsistence (€65/day): Covers meals, food, and daily refreshments. You must claim either flat per diem or actual meal receipts for the full trip—never mix by day.
2. Transit Claimed Separately: Local metro, rail tickets, and necessary taxis are Travel Expenses, claimed at 100% vouched cost in addition to subsistence.
3. No Alcohol on Vouched Claims: Under CIÉ / Revenue regulations, alcohol is strictly non-reimbursable. Use the built-in deduction calculator below to deduct alcohol from receipt totals.
