- 21.11.2006EUROsociAL Workshop Brasilia 8 Distribution of The
VAT Revenue I The German constitution: VAT revenue has to be shared
between the Federation and the Lnder according to the ratio of
inevitable expenditure and current revenues 2006: 5.63 % of total
revenue is assigned to the Federation to finance a subsidy to the
social security pension scheme Then, 2.2 % of the remaining revenue
is transferred to the Municipalities The remaining revenue is
shared by the Federation and Lnder at a ratio of 49.6 % to 50.4 %
(except for some special fixed allowance of about 2.3 billion from
the Lnder to the Federation) The EU share is financed by the
Federation => Result 2006: Federation 39.6% Lnder 44.9%
Municipalities 2.0%

- 21.11.2006EUROsociAL Workshop Brasilia 10 Distribution of The
VAT Revenue II In a second step the VAT revenue belonging to the
Lnder as a whole is distributed among the individual Lnder. A part
of the Lnder share of VAT, but not more than 25%, goes as a
supplementary portion to those Lnder whose receipts from the income
tax, the corporation tax and other taxes per capita are lower than
average. 1 The remainder of the Lnder share of VAT, at least 75%,
is distributed according to the number of inhabitants. 1 The exact
amount of the VAT supplementary portions depends on the amount by
which the per capita tax revenue of a Land falls below the average
per capita tax receipts.
