German Government Unveils Broad Economic Relief Package

The German federal government announced a package of economic relief measures aimed at easing costs for households, businesses, farmers, the hospitality sector, and volunteers. For households, the government increased the commuter allowance, lowered energy costs, extended the rent‑price brake, broadened the maternity pension and extended the electric‑vehicle tax exemption. Businesses benefit from a new investment‑tax‑credit scheme, reduced corporate tax, promotion of corporate e‑mobility, expanded research subsidies, and lower energy costs. The hospitality industry will receive a reduced VAT rate. Farmers will see the re‑introduction of a diesel‑fuel rebate, the abolition of the electricity‑fuel balance regulation, and support for agricultural fuel. Volunteer organisations will enjoy higher allowances, increased tax thresholds and improved liability protection.
