Have a payslip translated into German
Certified translation of your payslips for banks, lenders, employers and immigration authorities — several months bundled at a fixed price, with exact rendering of pay components, gross, net and all deductions. Produced by authorised translators where a formal proof of income is required.
Whether for a loan or a visa: the payslip is recognised only when gross, net and pay components are correct
A payslip is densely packed: wage tax, solidarity surcharge, church tax, four branches of social insurance, plus company-specific pay-type codes. Anyone who transfers only "gross" and "net" and swallows the rest gives the bank or authority no reliable proof. We translate every item traceably and keep the structure of the statement, so that the payout amount follows coherently from the individual items in the end.
For a loan and financing: what the lender wants to see on the translated payslip
For property financing or a loan abroad, the regular net inflow over several months counts — not a single month.
How many months should I have translated for the loan proof?
Lenders usually require the last three to six payslips; we translate them as a package at a fixed price, so that the income history is proven without gaps.
Are one-off payments such as a bonus or holiday pay shown separately?
Yes. One-off payments and ongoing pay stay separate, because banks distinguish regular from one-off income.
Does the net of the translated payslip stay exactly the same?
Amounts are never changed; we only adjust the number formatting to the destination country where this is expected.
For a visa and residence: proof of income over several months that the authority accepts
Does the payslip for the immigration office have to be translated in certified form?
As a rule yes — for a visa, residence permit or family reunification, authorities usually require a certified translation by authorised translators.
How are German deductions such as the solidarity surcharge explained?
They are named correctly and, where necessary, briefly explained, so that a foreign body can classify income tax, social insurance and surcharges without knowing the German system.
Are company-specific pay-component codes translated?
The designations are rendered and the code is retained, so that the payslip and translation match item by item.

Translating a payslip – frequently asked questions
Are pay types and deductions rendered correctly?
Yes – we render gross, net, tax and social security deductions as well as pay types exactly and consistently.
Is a certification necessary?
For banks often not, for authorities often yes. We supply both variants and advise on the scope.
How fast is it?
Quote usually in about 120 minutes; we bundle several monthly statements efficiently.
What does it cost?
From €0.95 per standard line; with several statements at a volume advantage – in advance as a fixed price.
Who requires the payslip as proof of income?
Banks for credit checks, landlords for rental creditworthiness and the immigration office as proof of secured livelihood for the residence permit all require the payslip. Where there is a foreign element, it is expected in translated form, usually certified for authorities – we provide both versions and advise on scope.
Must the payslip be translated with certification?
For authorities such as the immigration authority a certified translation is usually required, while for banks a simple translation is often sufficient. We deliver both variants and render gross, net, pay types as well as tax and social security deductions exactly and consistently.
Translating a payslip — rarely the only document required
For complete proof of income, banks and authorities often require, alongside the payslips, the Tax assessment notice as an annual receipt and, for pension recipients, additionally the Pension notice. We translate all records with consistent terminology – bundled through our Financial translation, so that gross, net and tax terms are named identically across all documents.
