What Norman removes from UG admin
Norman replaces advisor ping-pong, document piles, and deadline sprints with one continuous workflow for your UG.
Advisor ping-pong
for missing receipts and follow-up questions
Receipt ZIPs
at month-end for bookkeeping handoff
Deadline sprints
before VAT returns and advisor export
Norman instead of spreadsheets and advisor ping-pong for your UG
Bookkeeping, VAT returns, open balances, and advisor handoff stay in one workflow instead of bouncing between inboxes, exports, and spreadsheets.
| Manual advisor + spreadsheet setup | |
|---|---|---|
| Bookkeeping | Bank, receipts, and categories stay live | Month-end collection from inboxes and folders |
| VAT returns | Prepared from current data | Rebuilt right before the deadline |
| Annual accounts | Balance sheet, P&L, and E-Bilanz from the same books | A separate project months after year-end |
| Invoices & open balances | Receivables and payments in one flow | PDFs, reminders, and tracking in separate places |
| Advisor handoff | Structured exports with clean status | ZIP files, attachments, and follow-ups |

Start for freeFAQ
Do I need a tax advisor for my UG?
No, the law does not require one. Norman books your receipts and bank transactions with AI, and you review and approve. On the Max plan, Norman files your tax returns with the tax office through ELSTER. If you work with a tax advisor, you invite them to Norman from the Pro plan.
How much does bookkeeping for a UG cost with Norman?
Double-entry bookkeeping, unlimited e-invoices and bank sync for one account are free. Pro, with BWA reports, DATEV export and tax advisor access, costs €9 a month. Max, with every tax return and the annual accounts, costs €39 a month. Both prices apply with yearly billing.
Does a UG need double-entry bookkeeping?
Yes. A UG is always a merchant (Kaufmann) under German law and must keep double-entry books (§§ 238, 242 HGB). At the end of each financial year it prepares annual accounts with a balance sheet and a profit and loss statement. Norman keeps double-entry books on the free plan.
Which tax returns does Norman file for my UG?
On the Max plan, Norman files the VAT pre-return (UStVA), the EC sales list (ZM), corporate tax, trade tax, the annual VAT return and the E-Bilanz with your tax office through ELSTER. For the disclosure (Offenlegung), Norman creates a PDF that you upload to publikations-plattform.de.
Does Norman prepare the annual accounts of my UG?
Yes, on the Max plan. Norman builds the balance sheet and P&L from your bookkeeping, you check the figures, and Norman files the E-Bilanz through ELSTER. A small UG must prepare its annual accounts within six months after the end of the financial year (§ 264 HGB).
Does a UG have to build a reserve?
Yes. Each year a UG must put a quarter of its annual net income, reduced by any loss carried forward from the previous year, into a statutory reserve (§ 5a (3) GmbHG). The duty ends once the UG raises its share capital to at least €25,000 (§ 5a (5) GmbHG).
Does Norman work with my tax advisor and DATEV?
Yes. From the Pro plan, you invite your tax advisor to Norman and export your bookings in DATEV format. You can also use Norman without a tax advisor.
Can I start with Norman in the middle of the financial year?
Yes, on any date. Upload the DATEV export of your previous bookkeeping, and Norman takes over your opening balances and chart of accounts from it.
Does Norman also run payroll for my UG?
Yes. Norman runs payroll for managing directors, employees and commercial mini-jobbers and files the wage tax return through ELSTER. You pay salaries, wage tax and social security contributions with one click. Payroll is a paid feature.
Where does Norman store the data of my UG?
In EU data centers in Frankfurt am Main. Norman follows the GDPR.
