German Accounting, Payroll and Tax Services
Financial Accounting/ Bookkeeping
Our quest: Immaculate financial accounting - the must-have for flawless tax compliance and effective corporate management
WD Treuhand relies on innovative accounting software and digital platforms that enable you to transmit your receipts and documents securely and easily online. By digitizing accounting and other tax-related processes, we can work efficiently and provide you with particularly timely results.
However, we also understand that some of our clients prefer personal contact and want to physically transmit receipts. That is why we are also happy to serve you in the traditional way. Our dedicated team of German tax advisors and accountants is available on-site to receive your documents.
Regardless of whether you choose our digital or traditional services, you can rest assured that your financial accounting will be impeccable.
Financial Statements
Our leverage for successful businesses
As your German tax advisor, we offer you professional services for the preparation of the annual financial statement or the revenue surplus statement (so-called Einnahmen-Überschuss-Rechnung).
The annual financial statement presents the financial situation and the success of your company in a transparent way. We take over the collection and analysis of your financial data and prepare a meaningful annual financial statement that complies with legal requirements. For those who are not required to keep accounts, we are happy to create a revenue surplus statement.
Our experienced team of German tax advisors and accountants ensures that the annual financial statement or the revenue surplus statement is prepared correctly and accurately. Obviously, we take into account all relevant German tax regulations and options to optimize your tax situation.
Above all, WD Treuhand provides you with a reliable basis for your business decisions. Together, we create trust with external stakeholders such as banks, investors and business partners.
