How high is the statutory basic allowance for 2024 / 2025

The basic allowance for a P account is currently EUR 1,340.00 per calendar month.

In the new garnishment table for 2024/2025, the monthly garnishment-free amount was increased to EUR 1,409,99 Euro according to §§ 899 ZPO paragraph 1 in conjunction with §§ 850c paragraph 1 in conjunction with paragraph 4 ZPO.

Since 01. July 2024 is the garnishment free amount 2050,00 €. This is about 90 Euro more than before. Since The amount that cannot be seized increases with the number of people you have to pay maintenance for.

Sometimes debtors are entitled to additional amounts of money protected by law that go beyond the basic allowance mentioned. In these cases, the allowance for the P account can be further increased with the help of a P account certificate.

§ 902 Nr. 1 bis 6 ZPO regulates the cases in which an increase in the tax-free amount can be certified.


Cases for further increase of the basic allowance of the P account:

➜ In the case of statutory maintenance obligations for up to 5 people

What you need to know & consider about banks and the P account
 

Banks are only obliged to observe the basic allowance in the case of attachments. All individual increases in the garnishment exemption amount must be documented in accordance with Section 903 (1) ZPO in accordance with Sections 902 and 904 ZPO before the bank takes them into account.

 

As long as this is not available to the bank where you have the garnishment protection account (P account), only the basic exemption amount is considered non-garnishable. This means that the institute pays out to the creditors, you only have 1499,99 Euro left, although you would be entitled to a significantly higher non-attachable sum.

If the amount of money paid into the debtor's account in a month exceeds the established allowance or the account holder does not use the entire sum, the money is initially transferred to a sub-account of the P account and is not immediately forwarded to the creditors. This sub-account is referred to as a (PSK) withdrawal account.
