Questions Frequentes

What is the German VAT rate?

Germany charges 19% Mehrwertsteuer (MwSt) on most goods and services. A reduced rate of 7% applies to food, books, newspapers, public transport, hotel accommodation, and cultural events like concerts and museums.

What does MwSt and USt mean?

MwSt (Mehrwertsteuer) means "value added tax" and is the consumer-facing term. USt (Umsatzsteuer) means "turnover tax" and is the legal/business term. Both refer to the same 19% tax. You will see both on German invoices.

How do I remove MwSt from a German price?

Divide the gross (brutto) price by 1.19 for standard rate items. A EUR 119 product: netto = 119 / 1.19 = EUR 100, MwSt = EUR 19. For 7% items: divide by 1.07.

What is the Kleinunternehmerregelung?

The small business exemption allows businesses with annual turnover under EUR 22,000 (and expected under EUR 50,000 next year) to not charge VAT on invoices. They cannot reclaim input VAT either. It simplifies accounting for freelancers and small operators.

Is food taxed at 7% or 19% in Germany?

Most food and groceries are taxed at 7%. Restaurant meals consumed on premises were temporarily reduced to 7% during COVID but reverted to 19% on 1 January 2024. Takeaway food remains at 7%. Alcoholic beverages are always 19%.

Do tourists get VAT refunds in Germany?

Yes. Non-EU residents can claim VAT refunds on purchases above EUR 50 per store through the Tax Free Shopping scheme. Present the stamped VAT refund form at the airport customs desk before departure. Refund services like Global Blue process the claim.
