I worked in Austria and paid taxes. Should I file a tax return?

Everybody who works abroad has to pay income tax. Under certain conditions, you can refund some of the taxes you (your employer) paid. We refund tax from Austria and we can also help you get child benefits or pension contribution refund.

How much taxes are paid from your income?

Taxation is progressive on the individual's income in Austria. In other words, the more you earn, the more you pay. Under the Austrian Income Tax Act, each individual is taxable on his/her own income, and there is no joint taxation for married couples or households.
Austrian tax rates for individuals are between 25% and 55% from 2016 to 2019. From 2020 between 20% and 55%.

What documents do you need for your tax refund?

In order to get your income tax refund as quickly as possible and to apply for the highest amount, you need to have:

- A copy of your Lohnzettel form from each of your employers,
- A L1i form if you worked less than 6 months in Austria,
- A certified E9 - EU/EWR Bescheinigung form which proves your local income from your home country.

What is a Lohnzettel form?

Lohnzettel is a summary of earnings and deducted taxes by an employer during a calendar year. All employers are legally obliged to issue the form by the end of February of the following year (for example, by the end of February 2022 for fiscal year 2021).

What if you do not have all the necessary documents?

Even if you do not have all documents, you can still apply for your tax refund. We offer a “replacement” service - we will contact your former employers and will claim copies of your payment documents as your certified tax agent.

How many years back can I file my tax refund?

According to the Austrian tax office, you can go back as far as 5 years from the year in which you apply.

How long does it take to receive my tax refund?

It may take up to 5 - 7 months until you receive your income tax refund. This is counted from the time your documents are received by the tax authorities. The actual time may vary from case to case.

When is the deadline for filing the tax return?

Tax returns are due by the end of April of the following year! Please note that you may need to pay a penalty or late filing fee if you forget to file your tax return, but it may vary from case to case.

How much taxes are paid from your income?

The tax year runs from April 6 of the year to April 5 of the following year. The percentage rates or rates of taxable income may change for each tax year. As an employee, you pay taxes for 2019-20 as follows:

Tax rate	on income from - to
0 %	0 - £12 500
20 %	12 501 £ – 50 000 £
40 %	50 001 £ – 150 000 £
45 %	150 001 £ and more

Most taxpayers claim part of their tax-free income, called the personal allowance, up to £12 500 £.

How much FEDERAL taxes are paid on your income?

The federal tax rate is between 10% to 37%. Non-resident taxpayers (foreigner working in the USA for part of the year) cannot apply any personal exemption which means that you have to pay tax from the first dollar earned.

Taxable income	Tax due
0 – 9 700 USD	10 % of taxable income

What is the form of L1k?

L1k form can be used to claim child allowances, alimony payments, or other extraordinary expenses related to children as part of the employee tax assessment. For example if you have low income and are entitled to the single-earner or single-parent tax credit, you need to use this form. These amounts can be paid out:

Number of Children	Tax bonus	More children	Tax bonus
1 child	€ 494	-	-

3rd child	€ 220 *	3 children	€ 889
