Explanation of the small business regulation
How does the small business regulation work?
In order to simplify accounting and keep bookkeeping efforts low, entrepreneurs can use the so-called small business regulation if they fall below a certain revenue threshold.
They do not have to calculate and pay value-added tax (VAT). The legal basis for this can be found in the Value Added Tax Act (UStG). Small business owners should indicate on their invoices that they do not charge VAT in accordance with § 19 UStG.
The advantage of the small business regulation: You save the additional VAT pre-registration with the tax office – and this can be a relief.
On the other hand, you cannot benefit from input tax deduction. However, input tax deduction can be worthwhile, especially after starting a business. Therefore, you should carefully consider and discuss the decision for or against the small business regulation with your tax office.
Here are the 10 most common questions about small businesses.
Tax freedom for small business owners:
Invoices created under the small business regulation only differ from other invoices by the absence of value-added tax (VAT) being shown. Apart from that, these invoices still have to comply with all requirements of the GoBD (Principles of Proper Digital Record Keeping and Document Storage).
Just because you apply the small business regulation does not mean that you are exempt from submitting an annual sales tax return. On the contrary, you still have to submit it. The good news is that with the service of easybill, you can do this with minimal effort.

The invoice of a small business owner does not differ significantly from regular invoices. You must still include the mandatory information on an invoice, except that you do not need to specify the value-added tax rate as a small business owner. Instead, you must include a note indicating that your invoice does not show any value-added tax, as you are exempted from it under the small business regulation.
The small business regulation is a tax simplification regulation for companies with an annual turnover of up to 22,000 euros. It allows small business owners to be exempt from value-added tax and not to show any VAT on their invoices. However, they still have to submit a VAT pre-registration and an annual VAT return. If the turnover in the current year exceeds the threshold of 22,000 euros, the small business regulation no longer applies.
