Simple bookkeeping for businesses and the self-employed

Do you understand your accounting requirements? With Seewara, we offer a simple, transparent solution for businesses and the self-employed who want to keep track of their finances.

Who counts as a commercial enterprise?
Commercial enterprises include all companies that do not fall under the category of freelancers according to §18 EStG. This includes, for example, all commercial activities that are not exempt from the accounting obligation by law. Typical commercial enterprises are, for example, trading companies, craft businesses or limited liability companies (e.g. GmbH) that are either voluntarily or legally entered in the commercial register.

Limits for simple bookkeeping
Certain limits apply to commercial enterprises that are not required to keep accounts:

  • Turnover limit: 800,000 euros
  • Profit limit: 80,000 euros
    If your business does not exceed these limits, you can use the simplified income statement (EÜR) instead of complex double-entry bookkeeping.

Self-employed persons according to Section 18 EStG
Self-employed persons who work in one of the catalogue professions are also affected by special regulations. The catalogue professions include, among others:

  • Artistic activities
  • Scientific activities
  • Teaching and writing activities
  • Educational activities
    These professions are mentioned in the exhaustive list of §18 EStG and are considered to be self-employed regardless of the level of income.

Less bureaucracy, more freedom
Whether you are a tradesperson or self-employed – with our simple accounting solution, you can keep track of everything and save yourself unnecessary bureaucracy. Get in touch with us to customise your bookkeeping to your needs!

What do you actually do as a Body carer?

A personal carer, also known as a body carer or nurse practitioner, is a person who works in healthcare and nursing and looks after the physical well-being of people. The duties and responsibilities of a personal carer include

  1. Personal care: Personal carers help patients with daily personal care, including washing, showering, dressing and oral hygiene. They ensure that patients remain clean and hygienic.
  2. Mobility support: They assist patients with getting up, walking and other movements to promote mobility and prevent falls.
  3. Health monitoring: Personal carers monitor patients’ health, including vital signs such as pulse, blood pressure and temperature. They recognise changes in health status and report these to the nursing staff or doctors.
  4. Administering medication: In many cases, personal care nurses are also responsible for administering medications, ensuring that patients receive the right doses at the right time.
  5. Nutrition and eating assistance: They assist patients with feeding, especially those who have difficulty eating or drinking on their own.
  6. Documentation: Personal care nurses keep records of patient care and condition to ensure continuity of care and support communication within the care team.
  7. Care planning: They often work as part of an interdisciplinary team and contribute to the creation of care plans that are tailored to the individual needs of patients.
  8. Emotional support: Physical care nurses provide emotional support to patients and their families by listening and responding to their concerns.
  9. Hygiene and infection control: They ensure that hygienic standards are maintained to prevent the spread of infection.
  10. Collaboration with other professionals: Personal carers often work with doctors, therapists, nurses and other healthcare providers to ensure patients receive comprehensive care.

Overall, a personal care nurse plays an important role in the healthcare system by ensuring that patients receive the necessary care and support to fulfil their physical needs and improve their quality of life.
