New Zealand-Germany tax FAQ
Can you prepare New Zealand and German tax returns if I live in Germany? TWO.TAX can assess and, where accepted in a written engagement, prepare New Zealand individual and German filings in English. The returns required depend on tax residence, income types, periods and records.
Do New Zealand citizens always need an IRD return after moving to Germany? No automatic conclusion follows from citizenship alone. New Zealand residence, New Zealand-source income, the tax year and other facts determine whether an IRD return or other reporting is required.
Can you review KiwiSaver or pension payments under German tax rules? A scoped review can consider the arrangement's legal form, payments, residence history and relevant New Zealand and German rules. Treatment depends on the facts and should not be assumed for every KiwiSaver or pension account.
