Why so many gift budgets stop at $25
It is the IRS limit on deducting business gifts, which is why client gift lists often land here.
- $25 per person per year. IRS Publication 463 (2025) says you can deduct no more than $25 for business gifts you give directly or indirectly to each person during your tax year.
- Shipping doesn't count toward it. The same publication says incidental costs such as packaging, insuring and mailing are generally not included.
- Employee gifts follow other rules. Those are covered on corporate gifts under $50.
- General information, not tax advice. Read IRS Publication 463 and check with your accountant.

Corporate gifts under $25: questions
What is a good corporate gift under $25?
A small box of good chocolate with a short note that names the person's work. Our gift under $25 is the Quogue Luxury Gift Box (X-Small) at $22, before shipping. It is small enough to send to every name on a long list and still feels like a present.
What are good cheap corporate gifts?
Cheap shouldn't look cheap. Send one small, good thing to everyone rather than a bigger item nobody wanted, skip the logo, and spend the effort on the note. Food that gets opened and shared beats branded items that go in a drawer.
What are good employee gifts under $25?
A small chocolate gift box for everyone on the team, sent to each desk or home with a note from their manager. Keep it the same for everyone so nobody compares. For bigger moments like anniversaries and retirements, plan a larger budget.
Why do companies keep client gifts to $25?
IRS Publication 463 (2025) says you can deduct no more than $25 for business gifts you give directly or indirectly to each person during your tax year, and incidental costs such as packaging, insuring and mailing are generally not included. This is general information, not tax advice: check with your accountant.
Does the $25 include shipping?
No. Prices on this page are per gift, before shipping and branding. Shipping depends on how many addresses and where they are, so it is quoted for your list.
Is there a minimum order?
Minimums are typically 10 units per product. Custom branding or packaging can raise the minimum, and larger orders get tiered volume pricing in your quote.
How far ahead should we order?
About 2 to 3 weeks for smaller unbranded orders, and 4 to 6 weeks for 100 or more gifts or anything branded. For arrival by Friday, December 18, 2026, order 100 or more or anything branded by Friday, November 20, and smaller unbranded orders by Friday, December 4.
Can we add our logo to a $25 gift?
Printed packaging, branded ribbon and inserts are available where the gift allows. Branding needs 4 to 6 weeks and can raise the minimum order, so on a $25 budget most teams keep the gift plain and put the company name in the note.
