How Norman builds your EÜR
Income and expenses are prepared all year instead of being rebuilt from bank statements in July.
Review
Norman flags missing receipts and unclear bookings and suggests deductions such as home office days or per diems. You just review in “All transactions”.
File
With “Submit to the Finanzamt”, Norman files the Anlage EÜR via ELSTER. Then you file the income tax return, which takes the profit from the EÜR.
EÜR or balance sheet: which applies to you?
The EÜR is the simple profit calculation under § 4(3) EStG: income minus expenses, counted when the money moves.

EÜR deadlines 2026 and 2027

| 2025 EÜR | 31.07.2026 | 01.03.2027 |

What Norman removes from your EÜR prep
Norman replaces receipt hunts, year-end reconstruction, and unclear expenses with continuously prepared income and costs.
Receipt hunts
right before the EÜR
Year-end reconstruction
from statements and spreadsheets
Unclear expenses
without a receipt or clean category
Norman instead of spreadsheets and folders for the EÜR
Income, expenses, receipts, and EÜR status stay in one workflow instead of being rebuilt once a year from bank exports and folders.
| Spreadsheet + folders | |
|---|---|---|
| Income & expenses | Built continuously from bank and invoices | Collected manually at year-end |
| Receipts | Linked to payments and flagged when open | Missing only gets noticed while building the EÜR |
| Categories | Continuously clean and traceable | Sorted retroactively at close |
| Filing | Directly via ELSTER from Norman | Typed into the ELSTER portal |

Start for freeFAQ
Is there free EÜR software?
Yes. In Norman, complete bookkeeping is free, and you see your Anlage EÜR line by line before you pay a cent. Filing via ELSTER costs from 9 € a month billed yearly, income tax included. In the ELSTER portal you type every line yourself.
Can I fill in the EÜR online without a tax advisor?
Yes. The Anlage EÜR is always filed electronically (§ 60(4) EStDV), through the ELSTER portal or software with an ELSTER interface. Norman fills in the lines from your bookings and files the Anlage EÜR via ELSTER in one click.
Should I create the EÜR in Excel or with software?
Excel works but costs time and invites errors: you maintain categories, VAT logic, and the mapping to the Anlage EÜR yourself. EÜR software like Norman handles categorization, VAT logic, and submission to the Finanzamt automatically.
EÜR or balance sheet: which applies to me?
Freelancers may always use the EÜR. Trade businesses stay on the EÜR until revenue exceeds 800,000 € or profit exceeds 80,000 € and the Finanzamt asks them to keep books. Registered merchants (e.K.), UGs, and GmbHs always keep a balance sheet.
Do Kleinunternehmer have to file an EÜR?
Yes. As a Kleinunternehmer under § 19 UStG you still calculate profit with the EÜR and file the Anlage EÜR electronically. Norman handles the Kleinunternehmer status automatically, and filing is included in the Klein plan from 9 € a month billed yearly.
What happens if I file the EÜR late?
The Anlage EÜR is part of the income tax return. If that return is late, the Finanzamt can charge a late-filing surcharge: 0.25 % of the assessed tax minus prepayments per month started, at least 25 € per month (§ 152 AO). With Norman the Anlage EÜR is prefilled through the year, so filing is one click on “Submit to the Finanzamt”.
When do income and expenses count in the EÜR?
When the money moves (§ 11 EStG). Recurring payments such as rent or VAT prepayments that fall due and are paid within ten days of the turn of the year count in the year they belong to.
