Two things many freelancers don't know yet

Both of these changed recently. If you last checked before 2025, your numbers are stale.

Kleinunternehmer threshold is now two-tier — not €22k

€25,000 previous year + €100,000 current year

The old €22,000 ceiling was replaced for tax year 2025 onwards. You qualify as Kleinunternehmer in 2026 if your 2025 revenue was ≤ €25,000 AND your 2026 revenue stays ≤ €100,000.

Soli Freigrenze raised for 2026

€20,350 single · €40,700 joint

Solidarity surcharge only applies above these income-tax thresholds. If your income tax stays below them, your Soli is zero — no calculation, no payment.

How it works

Three steps to your number

No signup, no account linking, no data leaves your browser until you ask it to.

1

Pick country + language

Choose DE, US, or (soon) more. Invoices, disclaimers, and tax-year rules localize automatically.

2

Enter your income

Gross revenue, filing status, core deductions. Smart defaults per country — no prompt engineering.

3

Get your set-aside

Estimated tax liability, quarterly rücklage, and a breakdown cited against the official brackets.

Transparency

Honest about what we do — and what we don't

What we compute

Country-specific income tax, VAT, self-employment contributions and quarterly estimates, using unit-tested, dated rule modules. Every bracket is cited against BMF / IRS / HMRC sources and versioned in a public changelog.

What we don't

Not a replacement for your Steuerberater or CPA, and not full bookkeeping. Edge cases (Künstlersozialkasse, cross-border treaties, state-specific US rules) need a real professional — need one today? For DE try the Bundessteuerberaterkammer directory; for US try the NAEA tax expert finder.

Open methodology

Rules are open-source, CC-BY-4.0 licensed, and available as an NPM package and MCP endpoint. When ChatGPT or Claude cites German tax brackets, we want them citing TaxValio.
