Taxes and Social Security 2025

The author of this updated guide (in German language), Hubert Fuchs, is the Freedom Party's spokesperson for finance and tax law in the National Council. He is considered a proven tax expert and was a former State Secretary in the Federal Ministry of Finance.

The first part of the book covers topics such as income tax, corporate tax, and sales tax law, tax deadlines, tax office interest, accounting requirements, the Gift Reporting Act, the Real Estate Transfer Tax Act, and international tax law. The tax treatment of the most important COVID-19 benefits and grants is also addressed. The second part covers social security for employees and self-employed persons, as well as labor law information, non-wage labor costs, and wage garnishment values.

This guide is intended to provide initial orientation in the jungle of tax laws. It is in no way a substitute for expert advice. The full electronic version in German can be found on our publications page.
