ACCOUNTING SUPPORT FOR A BUSINESS (FIRM) IN GERMANY
Accounting support in Germany
Most German companies use the services of external accountants.
What are the advantages of accounting firm in Germany? External accounting service in Germany has one very important advantage – an accounting company can guarantee payment at its own expense of all fines in case of incorrect submission of reports or calculation of payments, issued by the controlling body.
Consulting on accounting in Germany in Ukrainian or Russian will simplify the understanding between you and the accountant, make it more accessible for you to understand German legislation in the field of accounting and taxes.
Features of accounting in Germany: excess income account (Einnahmen-Überschuss-Rechnung) and double accounting (doppelten Buchführung)
- Excess income account – Einnahmen-Überschuss-Rechnung (EÜR)

- Double accounting (doppelten Buchführung)
The definition of profit for the annual financial statements is done through the profit and loss (P&L) statement. All business operations are recorded twice on the accounts provided for this purpose or offset accounts. Due to the greater effort involved in this type of accounting, it is only intended for large companies. One of the reasons for this is that the tax office has a much more detailed view of the company’s activities.
The obligation to maintain double-entry bookkeeping depends on the organizational and legal form – OHG, KG, GmbH, AG and GmbH & Co. KG must keep double-entry bookkeeping. Annual turnover or annual profit is also important for the choice of accounting form: you are obliged to keep double-entry bookkeeping if the annual turnover exceeds EUR 600,000 or the annual profit exceeds EUR 60,000, regardless of the organizational legal form.
In Germany, as in most countries, there are three possible accounting options.
- When a director or an individual entrepreneur independently maintains accounting.
In this option, there are practically no advantages, but there are many disadvantages, in particular, lack of time to directly conduct business, making mistakes due to overload and lack of time to monitor all changes in legislation, etc.
- When a German accountant is included in the company’s staff.

- Accounting support (outsourcing) of business in Germany.
There are no disadvantages if the company you contacted is reliable.
