Hello All,

Any idea as to how the income tax refund for expats is calculated. How much is the percentage of the refund compared to the gross yearly tax cut?

Thanks for any inputs in advance.

Regards,

If you are talking about income tax: This is a very complicated topic and a refund (if any) depends on many factors of your personal situation.
You should ask your tax consultant (Steuerberater) about this - you need one anyway to prepare the yearly income tax declaration!
