    German questions...

    Does anyone know the tax laws and/or work laws for an United States citizen working and living in Germany?

    I.E. were I to accept the position as President of VAG I have been offered, would I pay US or DE taxes?

    The German taxes on goods are just like here 19%. Taxes on beer and cigarettes are a little lower around 40%-ish i think. Petrol sets you back €1,31 today, which I estimate about 70% taxes. Income taxes are 0-45% depending on your income. I hope that should do it. For more info, check this website:
    Germany Taxes Income Tax and Economy.

    By the way, if you find info about immigration in Germany, could you please forward it to me. I might need it in the future.

    I think what you wanted to say is correct. You pay taxes in your country of residence...so if one decides to live in Germany you salary will be taxed according to the German tax laws.

    AG stands for Aktien Gesellschaft, or a company (Gesellschaft) of which the shares (Aktien) are traded on the stock exchange....

    Ok Drakkie, what illegal shit have you pulled off this time?
    I'm dropping out to create a company that starts with motorcycles, then cars, and forty years later signs a legendary Brazilian driver who has a public and expensive feud with his French teammate.
