Trade tax and chamber of tax advisers in Leipzig

In 2026, the City of Leipzig levies trade tax (Gewerbesteuer) at a multiplier (Hebesatz) of 460% (source: City of Leipzig). Only commercial businesses pay trade tax, not freelancers under § 18 EStG. Sole proprietorships and partnerships receive a €24,500 allowance on trade income under § 11(1) GewStG. The Hebesatz is applied to the tax base of 3.5% of trade income after the allowance. Example for a sole proprietor in Leipzig with €50,000 trade income: (€50,000 − €24,500) × 3.5% × 460% = €4,105.50 trade tax.

Tax advisers based in Leipzig belong to the Steuerberaterkammer Sachsen. Whether someone is an appointed Steuerberater can be checked in the official register (Steuerberaterverzeichnis) of the Bundessteuerberaterkammer. The Federal and State Statistical Offices recorded 5,562 trade registrations and 4,580 trade deregistrations in Leipzig in 2025.
