Your Income Tax Return („Steuererklärung“)
Submitting a tax return in Germany is not just financially beneficial—it’s often legally required. To make sure you fulfill all obligations correctly and on time, it’s best to get support from a qualified professional.
As a general guideline, we recommend contacting a tax advisor (Steuerberater) in the spring to prepare your return for the previous calendar year.
We strongly encourage working with a certified Steuerberater. In Germany, this is a legally protected title, meaning the advisor has completed rigorous training and meets strict professional standards. This ensures you receive reliable, knowledgeable, and trustworthy guidance.
Below, you’ll find a selection of tax offices where English is spoken, making communication easier if you're not fluent in German:
