Child Benefit (Kindergeld) Payment Dates 2025

Good to know

• The payment date is determined based on the last digit (Endziffer) of the child benefit number

Child Benefit Payment Dates Determination in Germany

The system is simple – the last digit (Endziffer) of the Child Benefit Number (Kindergeldnummer) decides when the Child Benefit (Kindergeld) will be paid to the user’s bank account. The Child Benefit Number is indicated as xxxFKxxxxxx (x represents a number from 0 to 9).

For example, if the Child Benefit Number is 114FK123551, then number 1 is its last digit (Endziffer). This last digit (in this case number 1) determines the date of the month when the payment will be made. The payment always goes to the bank account.

In Germany, from January 2025, the Child Benefit is €255 per child monthly.
