| New Blog Article Alert: "Top 5 Business Assumptions Expats Make in Germany (And Why They’re Costly)" | Think You Know How Business Works in Germany? Think Again. 🇩🇪 | Starting a business abroad comes with many unknowns - and assumptions can be expensive. In Germany, even small misunderstandings about legal forms, taxes, or how to “just get started” can lead to frustrating delays or even financial trouble. Here are 2 of the most common assumptions expats make when starting a business in Germany: 1. "Business is business - things work the same way as back home."
Spoiler: they don’t. Germany has its own set of rules, regulations, and expectations - and skipping over them can backfire fast. 2. "The fastest and cheapest legal form is the best."
Not always. Choosing the wrong business structure can limit your options later. And by the way - registering as a Kleinunternehmer just to avoid VAT might not be the strategic win you think it is. |
