Correcting after submission
If you have already submitted the tax registration questionnaire (Fragebogen zur steuerlichen Erfassung) and notice a mistake, you can correct the details — informally via ELSTER or directly with the tax office.
What to do
- Send an informal notice to the tax office with the correct information
- For small-business (Kleinunternehmer) status, switching or waiving is possible — mind the deadlines
- Have your tax number and the affected details ready
