Germany debates inheritance tax as constitutional court ruling looms
Original: erbschaft
Inheritance is a hot topic in Germany, driven by several developments. The Federal Constitutional Court is set to rule on inheritance tax, raising questions about whether heirs will soon pay more. Business heirs' privileges are under scrutiny, while CDU/CSU labour politicians demand the closure of loopholes in inheritance rules, and owners of inherited property face pressure to act before the court's decision.
Why now: A pending Federal Constitutional Court ruling on inheritance tax is prompting heirs and politicians to debate possible changes.
