Please note that this is a noncommittal compilation of information by the Helpling GmbH, which is not guaranteed to be complete. Furthermore, this is not intended as a tax (or other) consultancy service.
Value added Taxes:
Many self-employed cleaners are “Kleinunternehmer” (small businessmen)! Kleinunternehmer are exempted from the Umsatzsteuer (§ 19 UStG). Businesses can count as small business if the turnover, including the applied taxes, in the last legal year was below 17 500 Euro and will presumably not surpass 50 000 Euro in the current legal year.
Income tax:
At a taxable income of below 8 820 Euro, self-employed cleaners normally do not have to pay income tax (§ 32a EStG). If you earn more than that you can calculate your payable income tax Einkommenssteuerrechner des Bundesministeriums der Finanzen.
Business tax:
Up to a business revenue of 24 500 Euro self-employed cleaners can be exempted from the business tax (§ 11 GewStG).
