The Federal Ministry of Finance provides several online calculators on the subject taxes on its websites.

If there are changes in the land register, property transfer tax usually has to be paid to the state - in such cases, the recently added “Property value calculator” may help you to figure out your minimum basis and lump sum substitute basis for property transfer tax. If you have questions concerning the applied tax rate or tax exemption, please contact our office.

The non-wage labor costs calculator is particularly interesting for entrepreneurs, because it is able to calculate how much the company must earn for being able to get employees.  If you want to determine the minimum hourly wage and minimum salary that applies for your industry, please contact our staff responsible for payroll accounting.

Finally, you will also find advance calculation programs for property transfer tax and a special calculator for agricultural and forestry transfer contracts.

On the website of Statistics Austria you will find a “Guaranteed value calculator”, which allows you to quickly calculate the current status of a value-protected amount ("valorization").

The official figures concerning consumer price index ("CPI "), construction costs and basic wage index are also available here.

Thus, you may calculate the current level of one month's rent or whether a threshold value for an increase was reached at all.

To avoid unpleasant surprises, officials should get informed about legal framework conditions for associations. You will find the most important topics in the linked article of our local paper BVZ.

The Federal Ministry of Finance provides an information brochure for associations, which may be downloaded on its websites.

There you will find more detailed information relating to

·        foundation
·        topics of corporate income and sales tax, as well as
·        social security.

In this brochure, you will also find model statutes that may serve as a template for the design of your individual statutes.

Speaking of associations and cash register: associations that profit from tax benefits, pursue charitable or ecclesiastical purposes and meet the criteria for tax benefits may get reliefs concerning single record, cash register and documentation duty for fundamental and certain non-fundamental auxiliary operations (small association parties).

If you have any questions concerning your association, feel free to contact RBP!
