Procedure details
Description
From 2024, the child allowance will be up to 6,612 euros per year for each child to be taken into account for tax purposes. In addition to the child allowance, an allowance of up to EUR 2,928 is granted for care and education or training needs (see "Related topics").
In the case of income tax, the child allowance and the allowance for care and education or training needs are only deducted if the tax exemption for the minimum subsistence level for children has not already been provided by the child benefit. The tax reduction is offset against the child benefit.
You can find more detailed explanations on the child allowance in the brochure ''Tax tips for families'' (see "Further links").
Requirements
When submitting the income tax return, the ''Anlage Kind'' must be completed and attached to the tax return.
