## Frequently asked questions

### Can you keep the books of a Slovak company whose owner lives in Germany?

Yes. We receive documents electronically, file with a qualified electronic signature and hold consultations by phone or online. You do not need to travel to Slovakia for your accounting.

### Which languages do you work in?

We communicate in Slovak, English and German. We can also explain documents and reports to management in Germany and prepare them in the structure they are used to.

### How does VAT work when trading with Germany?

Germany is an EU member state. Supplies of goods to a business with a valid VAT number are exempt under certain conditions, and services for businesses are mostly taxed by the customer. We check VAT numbers in the VIES system, file the EC Sales List and make sure the exemption is documented.

### Is there a double taxation treaty between Slovakia and Germany?

Yes, Slovakia has a double taxation treaty with Germany. If you are a Slovak tax resident with income from sources in Germany, we apply it in your Slovak tax return. The filing deadline can then be extended by up to six months.

### How much does accounting cost for a company from Germany?

Prices are the same as for local clients: single-entry bookkeeping from €40 a month, double-entry from €60 a month and payroll from €12 per employee. We set the final price based on the number of documents and send it within two working days of the first consultation, which is free.
