Typical cost
Figma subscriptions are fully deductible business expenses for self-employed designers, freelancers, and single-member LLCs. As long as you use Figma for client projects or income-producing design work, the entire monthly or annual subscription cost qualifies as an ordinary and necessary business expense. You'll report this on Schedule C Line 18 (Office expense).
Who qualifies?
You qualify if you're a self-employed designer, freelancer, or single-member LLC using Figma for paid client work or revenue-generating projects. Hobbyists or those using Figma only for personal projects do not qualify.
How to claim it
- 1 Collect all Figma subscription receipts and credit card statements showing monthly or annual charges ($12–$45/mo typical range).
- 2 Add up your total Figma expenses for the tax year.
- 3 Enter the total on Schedule C, Line 18 (Office expense), or include in an itemized office expense section.
Pro tip
If you pay annually instead of monthly, you'll still deduct the full amount in the year paid—consider paying before December 31st to maximize your current-year deduction, especially if cash flow allows.
