With a doctorate in finance and more than 13 years of German practice, I guide you through the German tax system. All services reserved under the German Tax Advisory Act (StBerG) are provided in every case by my cooperation partner Enikö Benedek-Pollinger, attorney and certified tax-law specialist (Fachanwältin für Steuerrecht) in Munich, who is fully authorised for this – I provide the professional preparation and coordination.
This way, even cross-border cases (double taxation, permanent-establishment questions) are legally secure.
GmbH, UG, GbR or branch office – with 12 accountants we work on the books of German companies every day. Modern and digital: send your documents by photo or e-mail, we post and file on time.
German payroll is complex, and construction payroll (Baulohn) is a discipline of its own: SOKA-BAU, ULAK, holiday fund, seasonal short-time allowance – daily business for us.
For staffing agencies we additionally keep an eye on the equal-pay and equal-treatment requirements under the AÜG.
Posting employees from Hungary or Romania to Germany? Mistakes in the posting process lead to painful fines. We manage the entire process – from the A1 application through the customs notification to continuously updated documentation.
If the Finanzkontrolle Schwarzarbeit comes to inspect, your documents are complete.
Anyone building in Germany knows: SOKA-BAU, minimum-wage rules and customs inspections show no mercy. We take care of compliance – you focus on the site.
Labour leasing in Germany requires a licence and is strictly regulated. Working without a licence or with faulty payroll is the most expensive mistake a company can make. We deliver the complete back office.
We work with 12 accountants every day; a large part of our clients are construction and staffing companies. What is a special case for others is everyday business for us.
Let's talk about your companyThe A1 certificate proves that social security contributions for an employee working in Germany are paid in the sending country – so no double contribution obligation arises in Germany. Under EU rules (Regulation 883/2004) it is the only recognised proof of this.
For practically every activity in Germany – not only for construction projects lasting months, but in principle even for a one-day assembly job or a business trip. On construction sites, the FKS (customs) asks for it routinely.
For postings it is issued for a maximum of 24 months. Condition: the sending company is genuinely economically active in its home country, and the employee does not replace another posted worker.
If the A1 is missing at an inspection, Germany can claim the social security contributions – retroactively and with a fine. Many general contractors will not even let subcontractors on site without an A1.
Labour leasing in Germany is only permitted with a licence from the Federal Employment Agency – this also applies to foreign companies leasing employees into Germany. The licence must be renewed annually in the first three years; after that it can be granted for an unlimited period.
After 9 months, a leased employee is entitled to the same pay as the client's permanent staff (equal pay). Collective agreements (iGZ/GVP) can postpone this deadline – compliance is strictly checked.
An employee may generally be leased to the same client for a maximum of 18 months – after that, a takeover or a change of client is required.
From the licence application through the payroll of leased employees to the equal-pay calculation, we handle the complete administration – the contractual side is secured by our legal partner.
