Tax offices and city treasuries that issue certificates

Check the office responsible for you before you send a request

A tax certificate normally comes from the Finanzamt that is responsible for you, which is not always the one nearest to you. Certificates about money owed to a city come from its treasury instead. For each city you can see how its offices take requests, whether they want signed copies, and how the certificate reaches you.

    Apply online and pay when you submit, then have it delivered or collect it by appointment.

    Follow the form’s requested applicant details and check how you want to receive the certificate. For someone else’s application or collection, confirm the authority required. Ask the recipient how recent the certificate must be; the city sets no fixed validity or processing period.
