Have you declared your withdrawal from the church or another religious community that levies taxes in Germany at the Hamburg Service office? This will affect your income tax deduction.
You are no longer required to pay church taxes.
Your withdrawal from the church will be automatically recorded in your electronic income tax deduction information (ELStAM). You do not need to provide your employer with any proof.
