Ask a tax advisor on the topic of Inheritance tax

Good morning,

thank you for using frag-enen.com. I would like to provide the following assessment to your question. Generally, the fee is determined according to the Tax Consultancy Fee Regulation (StBVV). The values of the subject matter are then applied, which are calculated based on so-called tenths or 1/20 fees (depending on the effort).

For the inheritance tax return, the subject matter value is 3,200 TEUR. A moderate fee would be around 6,000 EUR including VAT. Additionally, if requested for inheritance tax purposes, the properties would need to be valued (determination declaration). This would incur an additional cost of about 1,000 EUR to 1,500 EUR per property.

Overall, you should expect to pay around 12,000 EUR. It might be advisable to negotiate a flat fee with the consultant in order to potentially save some money here.

I hope this answers your question, if not, feel free to contact me again.

Best regards,

Knut Christiansen
