Can You Write Off Casino Dealer Tips?

Short answer: Dealer tips are taxable income; from 2026 qualified tips may be deductible up to $25,000 under the no-tax-on-tips rule.

Report all tips to your employer.

Records to keep: Keep receipts, 1099s or W-2s, a mileage log, and a note of the business purpose. W-2 employees should ask about employer reimbursement.
