Field help: (2018) Tax office

Select the tax office for the district you live in at the time you submit your tax return. Your place of residence at the time you submit your tax return is decisive i. e. if you move during the year, the tax office for your new home is the one you should select.

The selection list used by Lohnsteuer kompakt is based on the official directory of the Federal Central Tax Office, which lists all current tax offices.

In brackets you will also find the four-digit Federal Finance Office number (BUFA number). The last two or three digits of the BUFA number also form the first numeric block of your tax number (this varies according to your federal state).
