Which activities belong to household-related services of a minijob?

Private employers of a minijob

Private employers of mini-jobs, such as domestic help, nannies, gardeners, etc., are supported by the state, not least to counteract the high rate of undeclared work in private households. Private individuals therefore have significantly lower costs than commercial employers of a mini-job. The activities that can be registered privately are thus limited to so-called household-related services. In addition, a tax benefit of 20% of the total employer costs (max. 510 €) is available to the private employer in the course of the annual income tax declaration.
