Reclaiming VAT on expenses incurred on business trips in the EU

I'm a VAT-registered sole trader normally working from home in Ireland. I'm finally getting around to my latest VAT return for JAN-JUN 2023, during which period I spent 2 weeks on a business trip in Germany.

Should I try to reclaim VAT in full on any travel, accommodation & subsistence expenses incurred while abroad, or do I simply claim the full expense (incl. VAT) against income tax? The sums involved are quite small.

Would appreciate any advice.
