Field help: (2022) IBAN

Please enter here the IBAN (International Bank Account Number) of your current bank account.

You will always receive tax refunds from the tax office by bank transfer to the account indicated here. If your address or bank details change before the refund amount is transferred, please inform the tax office immediately.

Note 1: For the bank account information, a European IBAN is required. If an IBAN from Switzerland, San Marino or Monaco is indicated, the BIC must also be indicated. The tax authorities currently do not allow the indication of an IBAN/BIC outside the European payment area (SEPA). If you do not have a corresponding account, please do not provide any information on this page and contact your local tax office.

Note 2: If you do not want to provide bank details, you can simply leave the fields blank. However, refunds are generally paid out by the tax office in non-cash form. If you do not provide your bank details, the tax office will ask for your bank details, and it will take longer until you have your refund on your account. If you do not have bank account details, the tax office will send you a cheque to the address provided.
