When paying remuneration for certain services, such as performances by foreign artists or athletes, or the transfer of rights to foreign contractual partners, income tax or corporation tax is levied directly at source, i.e. when the remuneration is paid. Companies are increasingly encountering situations that lead to a withholding tax obligation under Section 50a of the Income Tax Act (EStG) – making it all the more important to recognise them in good time.
In which cases must withholding tax be deducted and by whom? This training course uses practical examples to illustrate the basic rules of withholding tax under Section 50a of the Income Tax Act (EStG) and the consequences of violating the withholding tax deduction obligation.
E-training available in German.
