Trustpilot

“The webinar was very informative and helpful. I especially appreciated how kind, patient, and supportive the speakers were. A particularly wonderful gesture was when they noticed that two participants were having difficulty understanding English and took the initiative to help them by asking another participant to provide translation. I found this very thoughtful, respectful, and inclusive.”

##### Relevant for All Internationals who Work in Germany: Understanding the German Tax System

As a student, you don't usually have to worry about taxes. If you have a part-time job and earn a good income, you may have to pay tax. You can reduce your tax burden with your tuition fees, travel costs or other study expenses.

![25](https://pages.fintiba.com/hs-fs/hubfs/25.png?width=84&height=171&name=25.png)

**If you are already working, you automatically pay taxes, which your employer deducts directly from your salary. **

The German state uses this money to fund infrastructure, education and healthcare, for example.

**The tax system in Germany is complex, especially for internationals.**

![26](https://pages.fintiba.com/hs-fs/hubfs/26.png?width=174&height=133&name=26.png)

By fling a tax return at the end of the year, you can get some of the taxes you have paid back if, for example, you have a long commute to work or need to buy work equipment.
