Businesses incur various bank fees for services such as account maintenance, transactions, and overdrafts. It is important to understand how to categorize and account for these expenses properly.
Bank fees are typically classified as operating expenses or general and administrative expenses. These are costs associated with the day-to-day operations and management of a business. In some cases, they may also be classified as financial expenses.
Bank fees are generally deductible business expenses. This means you can deduct these costs from your business income to reduce your taxable profit as long as they are ordinary and necessary for your business.
