Investing in Germany

Welcome to the new edition of Investing in Germany. This handbook reflects the most recent legal developments in Germany until December 2024. 

As the third largest economy worldwide after the US and China, and as the largest economy within the European Union, Germany is a major destination for foreign direct investment. Germany is consistently ranked as one of the most attractive destinations based on its stable legal environment, its skilled workforce and the innovation skills of its numerous industrial mid-cap companies. 

The German government and the European Union have made it a priority to secure and develop the industrial basis for critical technologies in Europe and we can already see a trend for increased foreign direct investment into Germany in greenfield projects aimed at making supply chains more resilient to trade barriers and geopolitical risk. We expect this trend to continue, as international players strengthen their footprint in the 450 mio + European Union consumer market. ADVANT Beiten will offer you an excellent gateway to Germany and to the European Union internal market.

We hope this series will provide you and your company the information you need to take your first steps towards market entry or the development of your business in Germany!
