Yes, employees relocating to Germany for work can often claim tax deductions for their relocation expenses. Under German tax law, job-related moving costs are generally tax-deductible as income-related expenses (Werbungskosten). Eligible expenses typically include moving company costs, travel expenses, dual housing costs during transition periods, and certain setup costs in the new location. ABOUT Aachen provides detailed documentation of all relocation expenses, making it easier for you or your employees to claim these deductions when filing German tax returns.
Companies in Germany can typically deduct the full cost of professional relocation services as business expenses. When your company pays for relocation assistance for employees, these costs are generally considered necessary business expenses and can be deducted from your corporate tax liability. Additionally, by providing documented relocation services through ABOUT Aachen, you can potentially avoid having these benefits classified as taxable income for your employees, creating a win-win situation that reduces costs for both your company and your international talent.
ABOUT Aachen provides comprehensive documentation for all relocation services, including itemized invoices, payment receipts, and service verification documents that meet German tax authority requirements. Our documentation clearly distinguishes between different service categories to help identify which expenses qualify for tax deductions. This thorough approach simplifies the tax filing process and helps maximize legitimate deductions for both companies and relocated employees, potentially saving significant amounts on tax liabilities.
Yes, costs associated with obtaining work visas, residence permits, and other immigration services are generally tax-deductible in Germany when they are job-related. This includes fees paid for Blue Card applications, residence permits for family members, and associated services. ABOUT Aachen’s detailed documentation of these expenses helps ensure you can properly claim these deductions. For companies, these costs are typically deductible as business expenses, while for employees, they may qualify as income-related expenses (Werbungskosten).
In most cases, the 19% German Value Added Tax (VAT) applied to relocation services cannot be directly recovered by individual employees. However, when companies pay for relocation services for their employees, the company may be able to reclaim the VAT as part of their regular VAT returns if they are VAT-registered in Germany. ABOUT Aachen issues VAT-compliant invoices that clearly separate taxable elements, making it easier for your finance department to process appropriate VAT reclaims and maximize tax efficiency.
ABOUT Aachen assists newly relocated employees with obtaining their German tax identification number (Steueridentifikationsnummer) and, if that additional service is needed and booked, their tax number (Steuernummer). We help prepare the necessary documentation and guide employees through the registration process with the local tax office (Finanzamt). This service ensures that international employees are properly registered in the German tax system from the beginning, avoiding potential complications with their first tax filing and helping them access all available tax benefits for newcomers to Germany.
