Are you unsure of how long your business records need to be kept and do not know the differences between the deadlines for different documents?
The retention periods for documents in Germany are regulated by law. Therefore, keeping a close eye on them is particularly important when planning their destruction.
At Rhenus Archiv Services, we provide you with a general overview of the legal retention periods and provide you with a PDF file with the current retention periods for 2024!
The retention period of documents can vary depending on the purpose. The basic principle is therefore: documents and records must be stored for as long as is necessary for the respective purpose.
If you are unsure about the retention period for your documents, our contacts in your region will be happy to help.
We will be happy to clarify the individual retention periods for your documents in a non-binding consultation.
