Which German tax software fits your return?

Buhl tax fits buyers who want a Windows interview without WISO’s platform switching. It covers employment, pensions, rental and investment income; it is not restricted to simple salary cases. Compare WISO Steuer 2026 for browser/mobile work, TAXMAN 2026 for a receipt manager, or SteuerSparErklärung 2026 for Mac support.

For a straightforward return, the tax administration’s free Mein ELSTER portal may be sufficient if you can complete the forms yourself.

What your licence includes

Licendi supplies a new key through European distribution, the publisher’s official download link and a PDF invoice showing VAT. Delivery is by email: instantly during office hours, within 24 hours at the latest outside them. Email and chat support are available; business buyers can request a quote for several units.

Tools for preparing the 2025 return

The tax-Lotse guides data entry, VaSt imports information held by the tax office, and ELSTER sends the completed return. Previous-year transfer is available from tax 2025. Assessment checking and sample letters support follow-up work. Separate business modules, including VAT advance returns, belong to tax Professional rather than this standard offer.

Requires 64-bit Windows 10 or 11 with a current feature release, 4 GB available RAM, 3 GB free storage and a 1280 × 800 display. Activation, updates and ELSTER require internet.

Activation and first submission

1. Download tax 2026 using the publisher link in your delivery email.
2. Enter the Garantie-Nummer; register it to your buhl:Konto if you need the three-installation allowance.
3. Import a tax 2025 file or start a new return, check retrieved data and update before sending through ELSTER.

A key for tax does not unlock WISO or tax Professional. If activation fails, verify the installed product and year before contacting support. Licendi’s activation guarantee lasts one month: if the key does not activate within that period, support helps or replaces it.

Tax year, updates and filing dates

This purchase covers the 2026 edition for tax year 2025; a 2026 income-tax return needs the 2027 edition. Install the publisher’s available updates before submitting. ELSTER transmission depends on the tax administration’s services and components. If you are not required to file, you have four years to submit a voluntary 2025 income-tax return (Antragsveranlagung), until 31 December 2029. If you are required to file and had no tax adviser, you should submit your return as soon as possible. For technical questions about the software, use the publisher’s support under its current terms; Licendi handles the supplied key.
