In some German states, the tax class change can be done for the current year once a year until the 30th of November. Nevertheless, the regulations may vary and should be inquired with the responsible tax office. If you are married and didn’t bring the original, translated, and notarized marriage certificate to the registration office you will be classified as „marital status unknown“ which means, single. In that case, you will pay very high taxes. Funny thing, even if your spouse doesn’t come to Germany, you still can get a better tax status by providing your marital certificate. You didn’t know that and got bad tax status? Relax, it can be changed!
