Audit report for your self-employment
An audit report (Prüfungsbericht) for self-employed individuals serves as professional evidence of the financial viability of a business. The immigration office or funding agencies request this report to verify whether your self-employment generates sufficient income and is sustainable in the long term.
Below you will find how you can obtain the audit report you need. It typically includes:
- a review of income and expenses
- an assessment of financial development
- a projection of the livelihood security
- a professional statement on the sustainability of your business model
Purpose of an audit report
An audit report may be required for the applicant or the spouse if either one is self-employed. It is particularly needed for residence-related procedures, such as:
- Issuance or extension of a residence permit (Aufenthaltstitel)
- Application for a permanent settlement permit (Niederlassungserlaubnis)
- Proof of secured livelihood for naturalization or citizenship (Einbürgerung)
The immigration office regularly requires a document prepared by a tax advisor, auditor or another qualified professional - you cannot write this report yourself.
