Skatte- och efterlevnadskalender 2028 för företag i Tyskland
Den här kalendern listar varje tidsfrist som gäller för ett företag i Tyskland 2028: nationella skatte- och rapporteringsskyldigheter tillsammans med EU-omfattande regelverk - till exempel AI-förordningen, NIS2 och cyberresiliensförordningen - som gäller i hela EU.
Återkommande skyldigheter - månatliga momsdeklarationer, kvartalsvisa inlämningar, årsredovisningar - bryts ner till sina enskilda förfallodatum för året enligt regeln som visas på respektive tidsfrists egen sida. Den här kalendern flyttar inte datum som infaller på en helg eller allmän helgdag; kontrollera alltid den länkade officiella källan för den exakta inlämningsfristen.
Omnibus I-paketet begränsade CSRD:s tillämpningsområde till företag med fler än 1 000 anställda och över 450 M€ i omsättning; börsnoterade SMF tas bort helt. Stora kunder får inte kräva mer hållbarhetsdata från leverantörer under 1 000 anställda än vad den frivilliga VSME-standarden anger. Företag som omfattas rapporterar för räkenskapsåret 2027 under 2028.
Det sista övergångssteget: från den 1 januari 2028 måste alla tyska företag, oavsett omsättning, utfärda strukturerade e-fakturor för inhemska B2B-leveranser. Även EDI-förfaranden måste då vara kompatibla med EN 16931.
