Germany monthly tax revenue by tax and level of government

German tax revenue month by month on the two definitions that are published: the Bundesbank series, which splits the take between central, state and local government and the EU and follows the joint taxes down to each individual tax, and the BMF budget-execution series, which groups the same taxes into joint, federal and Länder taxes and excludes purely municipal taxes.

About this data

German tax revenue month by month on the two definitions that are published: the Bundesbank series, which splits the take between central, state and local government and the EU and follows the joint taxes down to each individual tax, and the BMF budget-execution series, which groups the same taxes into joint, federal and Länder taxes and excludes purely municipal taxes. The two totals are not the same number and are not meant to be.
