Business & Office Moves

Shop fittings, machinery, stock and access determine the price of a commercial move. Don't forget: notify the trade office of the relocation (§ 14 GewO).

The amount of hardware, server cabinets, cabling, route and a weekend date determine the cost of an IT relocation. Backing up your data beforehand remains your job.

What makes a practice move expensive: equipment, files, weekend dates. Panel doctors need the admissions committee's approval to relocate their practice seat.

In a company relocation, downtime, equipment, files and storage count. If the employer reimburses staff moving costs, this is tax-free under § 3 Nr. 16 EStG.

The price of an office move depends on the number of workstations, files and IT, floors, route and the date – at the weekend, for instance, so business carries on.

Volume, floor, carrying distances and route set the price. The removal firm's labour costs cut your tax by 20% as a household-related service (§ 35a EStG).
