Germany’s dog tax generated nearly 600 million euros last year, marking a 1.6 percent increase over the previous record set in 2022, according to data from the Federal Statistical Office.

Revenue from the tax, which has steadily risen over the past decade, has jumped by 41 percent between 2013 and 2023. However, this increase in revenue does not necessarily mean more dogs in German households.
