About Zerberus GmbH Steuerberatungsgesellschaft

Led by managing director Dr. Marie-Louise Dietrich, a specialist adviser for international tax law, this Munich tax practice presents itself as an English-speaking adviser for clients across Germany. It works for international companies operating in the country, offering advice on the right legal form and set-up and then taking over their German accounting and tax affairs. A full payroll service is aimed at foreign employers and companies sending staff to Germany, including registration with the tax office and the social security bodies. Expatriates who have moved to Germany receive help with their German income tax returns. Other clients include start-ups, investors, managing directors, freelancers and private individuals, with additional work on VAT, real estate and transaction tax matters. Annual financial statements can be prepared in English or German, and the firm publishes indicative fees for standard income tax returns based on the statutory fee ordinance.
