Can I actually deduct my laptop from taxes? How much income can I earn tax-free? And what exactly are advertising costs or special expenses again?
In this workshop, you’ll get an easy-to-understand introduction to the German tax system – without complicated jargon. You’ll learn why it’s especially worthwhile for students and early career professionals to file a tax return – even if you’re “just” working a part-time job.
We’ll cover topics such as:
- Which types of income are tax-free
- Which expenses you can claim (e.g., laptop, textbooks, moving costs)
- What advertising costs, special expenses, and similar terms mean
- How a smart tax return can help you get money back
Ideal for everyone who wants to keep track of their finances and not miss out on any benefits.
