- The German government has introduced a draft law to amend the small business tax regulation in the Value Added Tax Act.
- The current regulation allows small businesses to be exempt from paying VAT if their turnover does not exceed €22,000 in the previous year and is expected to be below €50,000 in the current year.
- The proposed changes include increasing the turnover limits to €25,000 in the previous year and €100,000 in the current year.
- There will be a new reporting requirement for small businesses operating in other EU countries to claim the tax exemption.
- Once the turnover exceeds €100,000, the small business tax exemption will no longer apply, and the excess turnover will be subject to regular taxation.
