German family calculators for parental allowance, maternity pay, child support, inheritance tax, and more. Premium adds compare mode and PDF reports.
Eight German family-budget and benefits calculators bundled into one app: parental allowance (Elterngeld), maternity protection pay (Mutterschutz), vacation entitlement (Urlaubstage), child support per the Düsseldorfer Tabelle (Unterhalt), sickness benefit (Krankengeld), short-time work (Kurzarbeit), inheritance tax (Erbschaftsteuer), and divorce cost (Scheidungskosten / FamGKG-RVG).
Built for international families navigating German family law:
- US executives relocating to Frankfurt, Munich, or Berlin and trying to model parental-leave income before signing the contract
- UK Brexit returnees and dual-citizen households reactivating Krankenversicherung and Familienkasse claims
- Indian and Asian tech families joining the German innovation hubs (Munich, Stuttgart, Hamburg) and modelling Elterngeld before the parental-leave decision
- EU expats (Spanish, Italian, Polish, Romanian) coordinating Mutterschutz windows around binational pregnancies
- Cross-border divorce and inheritance cases involving German real estate, where ErbStG allowances and FamGKG procedural-cost tables drive the headline numbers
- Separated parents modelling Unterhalt with the Kindergeld offset already factored in
Included free:
- Elterngeld calculator (BEEG basis-tier, Plus tier, partner-bonus orientation)
- Mutterschutz pay calculator (MuSchG protection windows, employer-supplement orientation)
- Krankengeld calculator (SGB V net-cap orientation)
- Kurzarbeit calculator (SGB III KuG percentages)
- Vacation entitlement calculator (Bundesurlaubsgesetz)

Why families pick this app:
- Eight calculators that actually belong together — built around real life events (birth, parental leave, illness, separation, inheritance) instead of one ratio-formula at a time
- Fast inputs, transparent intermediate steps, and clear result screens you can screenshot for a notary or tax advisor
- Saved history and PDF report stay on device — no account, no cloud sync, no data sharing
- Coverage tracked against German 2026 rules and re-verified at every release
