Sorted: Freelancer taxes made easy

Doing your taxes in a foreign country can be daunting. What with all the tax returns, deadlines, deductions and special exceptions, as an expat in Germany you may find the tax system complicated and difficult to manage by yourself. 

Added to which, finding a good English-speaking tax consultant who is familiar with both freelancer taxes and expats is both difficult and expensive. 

That’s why Sorted makes it incredibly easy for anyone freelancing in Germany to take care of their taxes.

Sorted helps freelancers take care of their tax obligations and communications with the Finanzamt.
