Registered German company is relatively simple. Generally, you only need to find a professional agency to provide registered company services for you. Here I mainly introduce the tax situation of German companies. German companies only need to pay tax when the company is operating. If the company is not operating, it can make a zero declaration. German companies report tax once a quarter. Corporate income tax, business tax and solidarity tax account for the highest proportion, about 30% of net profit. Here is a brief introduction to these three taxes.

1. Corporate income tax the corporate income tax of German companies belongs to federal tax, and the standard corporate income tax rate is 15%.

2. Business tax the business tax of a German company is collected based on the business income of the enterprise in the current year. The profit calculated according to the company income tax law is calculated after the amendment of the increase or decrease items specified in the business tax law. The specific determination is very complex. In short, the operating profit can be obtained by deducting the corporate income tax, the loss of the previous year and other deduction items according to the specific situation (such as debt interest, part of lease expenses, etc.), and then adding the prepaid business tax of the current year and other items that must be added (such as part of the real estate value and overseas dividends, etc.).

The business tax burden is determined by two factors:

1) Assessed tax rate

2) At present, the estimated tax rate of Zihe company, Renhe company and other commercial activities has been reduced to 3.5%. Generally speaking, the average tax burden of average corporate income in different cities in Germany is about 29.83%. When the company is not profitable, there is no need to pay tax. If there is no income, there is only expenditure, and there will only be refunded value-added tax.

3. Solidarity tax Germany introduced solidarity tax in 1991. Individuals and companies are the objects of the surcharge. The tax base is the tax payable by individuals and companies in the same period, which is 5.5% of the company's income tax.

Germany is a country with high prestige in the EU, and the company registration is relatively simple. However, due to the variety of taxes in Germany and the complexity of calculation, you need a professional and responsible offshore company secretary service provider to work for you.
