Moinsen I'm a little streamer and I wanted to ask, from when you can accept donations? PS is 14

Ma

I think that's always off 13th Twitch is namely from 13. For example. Do you know Secret_Mongraal, ded is twitch partner and also 14 and earns pretty good pocket money. But inquire the best again legally and legally!

wi

Once you have registered a trade with your parents.

Fa

Can you give me a hint where to explore? Would be nice.

Fa

Business? Never heard of it…

ar

That's not true. You can just as well accept donations now, because you are 14 and can use Twitch with it

Ma

Look at the paragraphs, I do not quite know myself, but somehow suh after youth protection laws or ask your parents.

Fa

OK thanks

Do not answer if you have no idea. Donations may only be accepted by charitable associations and organizations. What you get from the people on Twitch, YouTube etc. Is income, which you have to pay depending on the amount.

Fa

At any time, however, there will be problems with the business registration due to the non-existent unlimited ability to work.

The 14-year-old should also find out about his tax obligations.

So parents ask for permission, guardianship court and enter business, because a private person can't accept tax-free donations, since it is not charitable.

The "donations" are nothing but sales of an entrepreneur.

Fa

Erm, the donations you receive on Twitch are sales and sales are subject to VAT.

A profit / loss remaining after deduction of operating expenses would be relevant to income tax.

Even 14-year-olds may face criminal charges for tax evasion.

The rights of use of Twitch are one thing, German business and tax law are another site and you seem to have no idea.
