if one leaves Germany mid-year, do you only pay taxes on the income earned while you were still living in Germany with a valid visa?
for example
* Jan 1 - Jul 1: earn 30k
* leave Germany Jul 1
* Jul 1 to end of year: earn 50k
On what amount do you have to pay for German taxes?
And does this depend on the leaving date (eg March 1 vs Jul 1 vs Sept 1)?
Many thanks in advance

You pay the German income tax rate for 80k€, but only on your German income of 30k€.cj780 wrote: ↑Wed Aug 14, 2024 10:30 am if one leaves Germany mid-year, do you only pay taxes on the income earned while you were still living in Germany with a valid visa?
