How such tax-privileged subsidies are to be handled in detail in the tax return for your individual case can only be best explained by a tax advisor or a payroll tax association. You can then deduct this tax subsidy with the next tax return. Each salary conversion is based on a corresponding agreement between the employee and the employer. <br><br>For example, in the case of such tax-privileged subsidies, it may be a question of subsidies for the journey between your apartment and your place of work by public transport. Since January, 1 2002, an employee may also require the employer to convert part of his salary into an occupational pension scheme. This is also tax-deductible and reduces the tax burden in the tax returns.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The term salary conversion refers to the conversion of parts of a wage or salary into tax-privileged allowances.<\/p>","protected":false},"template":"","faq_category":[9],"class_list":["post-5937","faq","type-faq","status-publish","hentry","faq_category-taxes-in-germany"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.7 -
