Bedrijfsgegevens
Geschreven door het bedrijf
Germany Pension Refund is a specialized administrative service for people who worked in Germany and now live abroad: we manage German state pension (Deutsche Rentenversicherung) contribution refunds from the first eligibility check to the final payout. The service has been running since 2015 and is operated by ATLAES GmbH in Berlin. Our current retained records document more than €22 million recovered for clients since November 2022. Non-EU citizens can generally claim back the employee share of their German pension contributions once at least 24 months have passed since their last German pension contribution and they live outside the EU/EEA. The exact rules depend on your citizenship and insurance history — our free calculator checks them for you, and starting takes less than one minute. In a managed claim, we prepare the application and payment documents, identify the recommended pension office for your claim, handle the German-language communication with the authorities, and follow up until the money has actually arrived — a process designed to avoid preventable delays. Most clients complete their entire part of the process digitally, and no German bank account is required: your refund is paid through the escrow account operated by our German partner law firm, and after the agreed fee is deducted, the remaining balance is transferred to the bank account you nominate. Our fee is 9.75% of the refunded amount, capped at €2,500 including VAT, with no upfront payment and no minimum fee. No refund, no fee. Beyond the statutory refund, eligible company-pension (bAV) and VBL cash-outs can be reviewed under a separate agreement. Germany Pension Refund is a private service. We are not part of or affiliated with Deutsche Rentenversicherung or any German government authority. You may apply directly to Deutsche Rentenversicherung without using our service; the pension office charges no application fee.

Very professional and highly recommended
Very professional and trust based relationship with Germany Pension Refund (GPR). Any delay caused in my case was based on internal issues at DRV and NOT due to GPR. On the contrary, GPR always was professional and supportive in all communications to continuously follow-up with the DRV including a Legal complaint that was needed in my case. My case took more than the average of 3 months and even close to a year to get the refund back - so it is highly recommended to be patient during this process, and GPR will help you fully in your journey. I can attest that this internal issue with DRV was uncovered and eventually solved in my case due to GPR's continuous efforts. Big thanks to Julia who handled my case personally. Very satisfied and highly recommended to fellow expats. Kudos!

I want to take this moment to share how thankful I am for my experience with Germany Pension Refund.
When I first started this process, I honestly didn’t know what to expect. It felt overwhelming at times, and I had a lot of questions. But from the very beginning, my case manager Julia made me feel supported and at ease. She was patient, kind, and always willing to explain things clearly whenever I needed help.
What truly amazed me was how smoothly everything went. From the time Julia forwarded all my documents to the German Pension System, it only took about 2 months for the approval. I didn’t expect it to happen that quickly, and it was such a blessing.
More than just the result, I truly appreciated how responsive and caring Julia was throughout the entire process. She never made me feel like just another case she treated me with respect and genuine concern.
I’m very grateful for her help and for the service provided by Germany Pension Refund. This experience gave me peace of mind, and I would sincerely recommend them to anyone going through the same process.
