Back Office Support in Germany

Outsourced accounting, audit support and tax back-office teams for Germany companies and firms, delivered from Pakistan by ACCA and ACA qualified professionals.

Quick answer

Back office support in Germany from Trusty Consulting is a Pakistan-based, ACCA and ACA led team that gives German companies and tax advisers offshore capacity for pre-accounting, open-item management, reporting and audit working papers. Because tax advice in Germany is reserved to licensed professionals, our role is preparatory, under the direction of you or your Steuerberater.

German companies and advisory firms in Frankfurt, Berlin, Munich and Hamburg face a shortage of qualified accountants and growing documentation duties, from GoBD-compliant records to the phased roll-out of mandatory e-invoicing. Our back office support in Germany gives them a Pakistan-based team that prepares the day-to-day accounting work in English.

Tax advice in Germany is reserved to licensed Steuerberater, so we do not advise on German tax. We handle preparation: document coding, reconciliations, reporting and audit schedules, prepared for your own finance team or your tax adviser to review.

Why Outsource Germany Back Office Work to Pakistan?

Overlapping mornings

Pakistan is three to four hours ahead of Germany, so our working day overlaps with your whole morning.

Structured, traceable records

Document handling and coding are organised around GoBD principles: complete, traceable and unalterable records.

English-language support team

Useful for German subsidiaries of international groups and for firms with English-speaking management.

Lower overhead

A qualified remote team avoids the high employment and social-security cost of a local accountant.

How Our Support Fits With Local Rules in Germany

Tax advice stays with licensed advisers

Under German law, tax advice is reserved to licensed Steuerberater. We prepare data and schedules under your direction and do not give German tax advice.

GoBD and record-keeping

German books must be complete, traceable and unalterable. We organise document handling around those principles, while your adviser remains responsible for final books and filings.

GDPR safeguards

Transfers of personal data outside the EU need safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses. We sign appropriate terms and work inside your systems.

How Our Germany Back Office Team Works

This is how back office support in Germany starts and runs with Trusty Consulting.

  1. Scope and NDA — we learn what you need handled, agree turnaround times and sign a non-disclosure agreement.
  2. Secure set-up — we receive named access to your accounting and document systems and agree templates, coding rules and review points.
  3. Daily and monthly delivery — our team processes work to your schedule. Pakistan is three to four hours ahead of Germany, so our working day overlaps with your whole morning.
  4. Review and reporting — work is reviewed by a qualified team member before it reaches you, with regular status and exceptions reporting.
