If you take up a self-employed agricultural or forestry activity, you must notify your municipal or local authority within one month.

You must also provide the tax office with further information about your activity within one month. You do this by submitting the questionnaire for tax registration. This questionnaire must be completed and submitted online via My ELSTER(www.elster.de) or via commercial tax software - without an individual request from your local tax office. Electronic submission is mandatory for you. The questionnaire serves to ensure that the activity is recorded correctly for tax purposes,

You do not have to register your agricultural or forestry business with the trade office.
