Supreme Tax Court: Full trade tax add-back of remuneration f ...
The remuneration paid to managing directors for the management of a partnership limited by shares (KGaA) must be added back for trade tax purposes even where the KGaA concluded an employment contract directly with the managing directors who each are limited partners of a limited partnership (GmbH & Co. KG), which itself is the general partner of KGaA (the plaintiff). According to the Supreme Tax Court, such "third-party employment" does not reduce the amount of add-back when determining the KGaA's trading income if the KG is entitled to a corresponding claim for compensation by its articles of association.
