Tax consultant in a public-law employment or official relationship - apply for appointment of a representative or authorisation to continue practising the profession

If a tax adviser or tax agent has entered into a public-law employment relationship as a temporary elected official or a public-law official relationship, he may not exercise his profession as a tax adviser or tax agent unless he performs the task assigned to him on an honorary basis. The competent Chamber of Tax Consultants may, at the request of the tax consultant or tax agent, appoint a representative or allow the tax consultant or tax agent to exercise his profession himself if this does not jeopardise compliance with the general professional obligations. Procedure 1. Submit an ‘Application for appointment of a representative or authorisation to continue practising the profession’. You can do this online or by post. 2. Submit the complete application documents to the Berlin Chamber of Tax Consultants and pay the fee. 3. The Chamber of Tax Consultants will then check whether you fulfil the requirements and decide on your application. 4. You will be notified of the result by post. If you have any questions or need help with your application, the contact persons at the Berlin Chamber of Tax Consultants will be happy to provide you with more detailed information.
