The move abroad or the relocation to Germany are complex processes that can have significant tax implications. Both the relocation of the main residence abroad and the return to Germany require careful tax planning to avoid undesirable tax consequences and to comply with all legal regulations.

When moving away from Germany, there can be tax consequences such as the so-called exit taxation . This is intended to prevent German tax claims on certain assets from lapsing due to the relocation of residency abroad. This particularly affects shares in corporations, which can be sold abroad without Germany being able to levy taxes anymore. Here, early tax planning is crucial to minimize potential tax burdens.

When relocating to Germany, international aspects such as double taxation agreements (DBA) are relevant. These agreements aim to prevent income from being taxed twice - both in the home country and in Germany. A thorough examination and application of the relevant DBAs is essential to avoid tax disadvantages and to take advantage of all available tax benefits.
