Do donations have to be taxed under 100 euro / month?

By donations, I mean something like a Twitch stream that is free. And where donations are made completely voluntarily and independently and without any consideration.

I just saw a video there's an allowance? Is that also the case in Switzerland and Austria?

da

As a twitch streamer you have your own company, that is not personal income.

Jo

I can't imagine anyone starting a streamer starting a company.

da

As soon as you earn money: yes.

Jo

I can't imagine any streamer starting out and making money starting a company.

Gu

And further?
It doesn't change the commercial nature of the project just because you don't register it.

Re

Company?

da

Sorry, which part of "trade" did you not quite understand on Twitch and Streamer?

Re

Certainly not in Germany.

You have to state this on your tax return.

Jo

And why aren't they all being sued in rows?

Jo

I've never done a tax return so I have no idea what that would mean and how and what.

Re

I take a quick look into the garbage dump: "Twitch, also Twitch.tv (stylized as twitch), is a live streaming video portal that is primarily used to broadcast video games."

What does this have to do with "company"?

But if I had misunderstood something, I would be happy to be instructed. Always enjoy learning.

da

I guess: Twitch doesn't give out any money (advertising income, subscription money, donations) to private individuals?

Re

This may be. But wouldn't they then be traders? Just ask stupid.

Why a company?

Gu

And why aren't they all being sued in rows?

Because not everyone is noticeable, it's like parking in the wrong place.

But if someone gets noticed, it gets pretty expensive.

And by the way, you don't have to set up a company if you register commercially.

Gu

You don't have to mention that:

Everyone here who understands something has noticed that.

Jo

I've never worked because of that

Re

But that wasn't nice ;-)

Gu

The truth isn't always nice.

Jo

Registering a business costs money - what's the point if you don't earn anything. I hate Austria and Germany. I'm emigrating here. Useless states.

Gu

I'm emigrating here. Useless states.

Bold words for someone with this statement:

I've never worked because of that

Take care!

Jo

I've never worked because I got depressed - from our great school system and the people here. I think a life that is worthwhile awaits me elsewhere.

Gu

Which country do you want to emigrate to, how do you want to pay for it and what do you want to live on there?
Do you think that you will be welcomed there with open arms?

Jo

I don't need much to live. I've lived in poverty and was happier there than here in abundance. Believe me, people are welcomed with open arms more everywhere than in Germany.

Gu

Well, if you say that.

Good luck, even if you don't tell where you're going.

da

You don't have to set up a GmbH. But every trader is a two-legged company. Don't know why you get upset about the word "company"?
