compensation approval for the guardian

If you manage a guardianship professionally, you can demand remuneration for it. For guardianships managed on a voluntary basis, this is only possible under certain conditions.

  •  

Detailed description

The fee is 23 euros per hour. If the guardian has special knowledge that can be used to manage the guardianship, the hourly rate increases

  • to 29.50 euros if his knowledge has been acquired through a completed apprenticeship or comparable completed training;
  • to 39 euros if his knowledge has been acquired through completed training at a university or through comparable completed training.
  • Any sales tax incurred on the remuneration will be reimbursed additionally.

If the particular difficulty of the guardianship matters justifies this in exceptional circumstances, the family court may grant a higher hourly rate than the stipulated rate. This does not apply if the ward is destitute.
