history
With the Erzberger reform , a unified Reich finance administration was created in Germany . As lower tax authorities, tax offices arose at the level of the districts. In addition, main customs offices were created for the customs administration . The newly created state tax offices, which were supposed to ensure the uniformity of taxation, were superordinate to these. Although the name suggests this, the state tax offices were neither independent nor federal state institutions. They formed the middle level of the Reich Finance Administration and were directly subordinate to the Reich Ministry of Finance . From April 1, 1937, the authorities were called Oberfinanzpräsident (e.g. the state tax office in Darmstadt became Oberfinanzpräsident Hessen in Darmstadt).
Tax courts were set up at the state tax offices.
After the Second World War , the tax administration was reassigned to the states. The chief finance presidents were therefore canceled and liquidated by the occupation authorities in the course of the following years. Oberfinanzdirectors were newly created as middle state authorities . These were at the same time the central customs authorities and the federal property administration . So they were also federal authorities at the same time.
