Le­gal re­qui­re­ments, com­plex tasks, con­flic­ting in­te­rests: these are just a few of the chal­len­ges fa­cing com­pa­nies to­day – and they are of­ten more than a sin­gle la­wyer can handle alone. That’s why you need a full-ser­vice law firm at your side – one with ex­perts in every area of law that af­fect your com­pany.

This guide to Real Es­tate Tax in Ger­many is in­ten­ded to pro­vide an in­itial over­view of ger­man real es­tate ta­xa­tion.

More and more com­pa­nies are be­ne­fiting from the tax in­cen­ti­ves for re­se­arch and de­ve­lop­ment in­tro­du­ced with the Re­se­arch Al­lo­wance Act in 2020. The re­cently enac­ted Growth Op­por­tu­nities Act has si­gni­fi­cantly ex­pan­ded the fun­ding to pro­vide fi­nan­cial in­cen­ti­ves, es­pe­cially for me­dium-si­zed en­ter­pri­ses, to in­vest more in re­se­arch and de­ve­lop­ment. The goal is to strengt­hen Ger­many as an in­vest­ment lo­ca­tion and to sti­mu­late re­se­arch ac­tivi­ties.
