Procedure descriptions
Withholding tax - apply for a non-assessment certificate
If you receive income from capital assets from a bank, the bank must generally withhold capital gains taxso-called withholding tax). However, you can also issue your bank with an exemption order. This amounts to a maximum of
- if you are single: 1. 000
- if you are married or in a registered civil partnership: 2,000
The withholding of capital gains tax generally covers the taxation of your investment income. However, this only applies to domestic investment income. If you receive your investment income from a foreign bank, no withholding tax will be deducted and you must generally submit an income tax return.
If you do not wish to have withholding tax deducted, you must submit a non-assessment certificate (NV-Bescheinigung) from the tax office to the bank.
Please note: If your investment income is lower, you do not need a non-assessment certificate for exemption from withholding taxCertificate. In this case you can issue an exemption order to your bank. You can obtain the form for this from your bank.
