Private persons and legal entities excessively seek tax advisors (Steuerberater) in Germany. The reason is that german law relating to all types of taxes is quite complicated, so without tax advisors’ professional assistance, it is almost impossible to complete annual tax returns or make correct business decisions independently.
German word Finanzberater is the same for both Tax advisor and Tax consultant.
On January 1, 2022. the Tax Consultant Chambers (Steuerberaterkammern) in Germany counted 101,070 members. Compared to the previous year, the profession has grown by 0.9 %. This corresponds to 866 new members.
