What is the TIN ID of Germany?

When you are filing your tax return or filling out a personal information form for a new job, you should always have your tax ID number, also known as TIN (Steuer-ID), on hand. Every person who is registered in Germany (or is liable to pay taxes here) automatically receives an 11-digit tax ID which is used for all tax purposes and never changes, not even when you move or get married – it’s valid for life. The Federal Central Tax Office (BZSt, Bundeszentralamt für Steuern) issues this number – it is often the first piece of mail that a baby receives after its birth and is even valid 20 years after death. The Federal Central Tax Office stores the following information together with your tax ID:

First and last name
Previous names
Current address
Academic degrees
Religious name/artist name
Date and place of birth
Gender
Responsible finance authorities
Date of death

The German government introduced tax IDs in 2007 as part of the eGovernment strategy, with the intention of replacing the tax office’s (Finanzamt) old tax numbers. The number keeps your personal and tax data clearly and unambiguously in one place and simplifies communications between you and the tax authorities, as well as between the authorities themselves (e.g. tax offices, family benefits and pension offices).
