Together with our IT partner, ITEBO GmbH from Osnabrück, we were one of the few municipalities in Lower Saxony to join the "digital trade tax assessment" pilot project. The project has now been successfully completed after a test phase.
In addition to the paperless processing of tax data, the main advantage of the digital trade tax assessment notice is that the digitally transmitted data from the ELSTER portal can be read and processed by the financial software via an interface. Parallel to the digital data, a readable trade tax assessment notice (PDF) is also transmitted to the ELSTER mailbox or My UK.
In order for you to benefit from digital progress, a declaration of consent to the local authority authorised to collect the data is required. You can find a corresponding declaration of consent at Declaration of consent for digital trade tax assessment.
Further information can also be found at www.digitaler-gewerbesteuerbescheid.de.
Important for DATEV users:
In order for the digital data to be processed by DATEV, it is necessary for you to register with DATEV as a pilot law firm. Please enquire with your contact at DATEV.
If you use other software, please contact your software provider for information on the settings required for data exchange with ELSTER.
