If you're starting a business in Germany, you'll face several questions, including those related to bookkeeping. Perhaps you're wondering if you can also keep your books in the Netherlands? And what about VAT?
If you keep your accounts in Germany, you'll be faced with a complex system of laws and regulations that differs significantly from the Dutch system. For example, you'll be dealing with German commercial law and accounting standards. Furthermore, depending on where you operate, you'll have to deal with the tax authorities of various states. You'll need to file various taxes, such as income tax, corporate tax, and VAT. And then there are the annual financial statements, which must be filed with the German Commercial Register on time. Exactly what needs to be published depends on the size of your business.
