We would like once again to inform you of the tax dates for the current year 2025. The enclosed overviews contain the most important and most common deadlines under the provisions currently in force.
As usual, some dates may still be subject to changes at short notice. We will inform you of any such changes in good time.
The enclosed overviews are structured as follows:
1. Deadlines relating to recurring tax dates (Annexes 1A, 1B, 1C)
2. Deadlines relating to specific tax dates
3. Pension contributions of craftsmen and traders
4. Insurance contributions for commercial agents
5. Tax assistance, Form 730/2025
Please note that we have primarily taken into account deadlines of a tax nature. Accordingly – with a few exceptions – deadlines arising from social security legislation or from other provisions are not listed.
