Haha, thanks for linking to my website! Happy to answer any questions. Skimmed this thread and I'm quite surprised how few people are aware of the permanent establishment problem. Quick primer on the permanent establishment problem: Yo

A lot of slightly misleading information here. - What you're talking about is working as a freelancer (Freiberufler), which is a subset of a sole proprietor (Einzelunternehmen); these are different business types than a GmbH, and the a

Yup. Most of the time, you simply don't need a GmbH. I wonder why German people often think they need to found one - maybe because people in the US have a low threshold of founding an LLC, but that's because it's easy and che

Sure, there are lots of middlemen who are more than happy to take your money to navigate this broken process, and tax advisors are probably #1 on the list :) That being said, even throwing money at a tax advisor won't reduce the 16 ste

Thanks! Super interesting. Yeah, they were alright - definitely a bit of a "we love to take a lot of your money" vibe, but they did have some actual knowledge. Some of the other tax advisors in this area are way more shady - like,

Awesome. I'd be really curious which lawyer you were referring to - if you like, feel free to reach out privately (e.g. Telegram channel link on the website) :)

Ha, that's my website - thanks for posting it (and for linking to it - allaboutberlin is awesome!). Indeed, the valuation for the purpose of exit tax is 13.75 * (avg. of yearly profits for the past 3 years); and that valuation is taxed

Berlin is a great place to observe policies with good intentions, yet negative second-order effects. Distributing free potatoes will likely cause waste somewhere else, as e.g. people will buy less potatoes in supermarkets. The waste just be

That won't work, for multiple reasons: - I assume you're referring to founding a UG with 1€ in Germany. If you truly found it with 1€, it'll technically be bankrupt shortly after founding it because the founding costs are aro

In most developed countries, you should incorporate at your place of residence. That's because incorporating in a foreign country will introduce tax issues regarding the so-called "permanent establishment". As an example, if

Interesting to see this on HN. I was part of the research group which published this back in 2015 [1], I think we were the second group worldwide to publish this. So, first off, this is not new. The linked publication here mainly seems to b

Pretty much all political parties loudly announce that they'll reduce bureaucracy, but, judging by the outcomes, not much has happened so far. That being said, it's probably overly simplistic to blame political parties for this -

Agreed. As mentioned in another comment, I think it'd be fair to levy the exit tax when you actually sell your company in the future . Like, if I ever sell my business, I'd be happy to pay my fair share of German taxes on said bu

by olieidel 1y ago
Yes, that's true, but the implementation is.. not very elegant. In theory, the exit tax should ensure that Germany gets the taxes of the sale of your company. So, if you ever sold your company once you're no longer in Germany, Ger
