Preview of what you can expect from RelaxTax in 2025

Step 1: Onboarding

Your Tax Buddy on your side

Select one out of 4 Tax Buddies, each of them will be able to ask you questions about your tax year.

Karl Heinz, Maria, Gernot or Margarete will help with your tax questionnaire based on real life examples.

Step 2: Questionnaire

One Questionnaire. Tailored for you

The questionnaire automatically adapts to you and your circumstances in life.

Some questions will ask you to put in an amount. For accurate reporting it's good to have those values ready

With your e-card to your tax number

RelaxTax

No tax number? No problem!

In case you already have a tax number, but can't find it, you can use your e-card number inside the app to request your tax number.

In case you are very certain you've never had a tax number, you can use the form linked below to request a tax number from the tax authorities.

Why don't wait until it happens automatically?

The situation of each employee is individual, can differ from year to year and can also change. Depending on the circumstances, you have the opportunity to benefit from tax breaks, if you apply for them accordingly - namely in the form of a tax equalization and applied for correctly!

Step 3: Refund Calculation

Your possible refund

More money from your gross salary. Knowing what your possible refund might be is our priority no. 1 – how else would RelaxTax be worth it for you?

Using your monthly net and gross income, you can calculate your possible refund. You can find both of these values on your monthly payslip.

In case you have fluctuating pay during the year, the refund calculation can be marginally off.

Step 4: Submission

Reviewed by experts

RelaxTax makes the difference with our expert review. Our experts look over your inputs before a tax return is submitted. In case something doesn't look right, they will contact you.

And all of that is obviously included in the Standard Package. RelaxTax acts in your benefit.

Step 5: Tracking

Track it while it's hot 🔥

Similar to an order in an online shop, you can also track your tax return with RelaxTax during the process.

RelaxTax cannot influence the speed at which the tax office operates, but can inform you best about each step and where your tax return currently is.

For additional questions, RelaxTax is only one email away. And once again this is all included within the RelaxTax Standard Package.
