Whether you have to register a business depends on your individual situation and cannot be answered in the same way for every host. If you are unsure whether you need to register a business, you can first simply contact your local trade office and ask. There you will usually get a quick and competent answer. We would like to share our experiences on this topic with you in the following.

As a landlord of a parking space on your privately owned land, it is not necessary to register a business, unless this is your main source of income. However, there are factors that make it mandatory to register a business. These include:

exceeding the tax exempt amount of 24.500 € profit per year

the offering of additional services such as a laundry service
