Can I Write Off a Country Club Membership?
Short answer: No, country club and social club dues aren't deductible, even if you meet clients there.
Meals with clients at the club can still be 50% deductible.
Records to keep: Keep receipts, statements (1098, 1098-T, 1099, W-2G), and a note of what each cost was for. Compare itemizing to the 2026 standard deduction before you claim.
