Can You Write Off Travel for YouTube Videos?
Short answer: Partly: a trip mainly to film content for an established channel can be deductible.
Vacations with a few videos are mostly personal. Keep a shoot schedule.
Records to keep: Keep receipts, 1099s and platform tax summaries, a mileage log, and a note of the business purpose.
