Moving employees within or to Germany? This German Employee Relocation Package Form (Umzugskostenpauschale) helps HR teams, payroll departments, and employers streamline relocation cost management while staying compliant with German tax law.

Under German tax regulations, employers can provide tax-free relocation allowances to employees moving for work-related reasons. This form automatically calculates eligible allowances based on distance moved, family composition, and current Bundesfinanzministerium guidelines—eliminating manual calculations and reducing compliance risk.

Perfect for:

• HR departments managing employee relocations across Germany
• Payroll teams ensuring correct tax-free benefit calculations
• International companies relocating staff to German offices
• Accounting firms supporting clients with employee mobility

The form captures essential details including old and new addresses, reason for relocation, family size (wichtig for calculating the correct Pauschale), and moving dates. Built-in logic helps determine eligibility for tax-free benefits and calculates appropriate allowance amounts based on whether the employee is single, married, or has dependents.

With Paperform's calculation engine, the form automatically determines distance thresholds and applies the correct Umzugskostenpauschale rates—saving your team hours of manual work. Submissions can flow directly into your HRIS, payroll system, or accounting software via Stepper workflows, or connect to tools like Personio, DATEV, or SAP SuccessFactors.
