Which is the best way to draw and tag an entrance which is not in the building wall but about 20 m away from the building leading underground to the basement floors. The way from the entrance to the building is a tunnel covered by earth and grass (not a grass covered roof) so it cannot be seen from above. I can imagine that my question is not unique but can appear where buildings are built on slopes.

You can map the way in the tunnel:
highway=path
tunnel=yes
layer=-1 (if anything else is crossing above)
level=-1 (or whatever is appropriate for the rest of the building level the tunnel connects to)

And then connect the tunnel to the overground road network and put an entrance=main or =yes on the end point of the tunnel.
