How the GmbH annual financial statements for past years work with mika, from the first booking to submission

You haven't finished your 2025 bookkeeping yet, and now you need the annual financial statement, all three tax returns, and the balance sheet, fast. With mika, you can catch this up retroactively, no tax advisor, no ELSTER account, no need to learn bookkeeping software. You upload your documents, mika's AI takes care of the rest, and our trained bookkeepers check the result. Catching up a financial statement retroactively works a little differently than ongoing bookkeeping. Here's what that actually looks like.

4 steps to your GmbH annual financial statements

mika analyzes your receipts, automatically flags errors and deadlines, and gives you valuable insights. If you need it, our experts are there to answer your questions.

  1. 1

    Connect your bank account

    Onboarding takes about 15 minutes. Company name, tax number, business address, chart of accounts (SKR03 or SKR04), and bank connection setup. mika connects to your bank via a PSD2-compliant interface and automatically imports all transactions from the 2025 fiscal year. You can link multiple accounts and credit cards at the same time, everything comes together in one place. If older transactions are missing, you can submit bank statements as PDF or CSV and our team will import them manually.

  2. 2

    Upload all your 2025 receipts at once

    You upload all of the year's receipts in one go. Incoming invoices, outgoing invoices, credit card statements. This works via bulk upload with hundreds of files at once, as a ZIP archive, by email forwarding to your personal mika address, or via Google Drive sync. You don't need to pre-sort or rename anything, mika automatically recognizes what type of document it is, classifies it directly, and automatically rejects duplicate uploads so no booking gets entered twice.

  3. 3

    mika's AI books it, you work through the to-dos

    mika's AI checks every receipt for completeness under §14 UStG, assigns it to the correct account in your chart of accounts, and matches it to the right bank transaction. Up to 95 percent of bookings run fully automatically. Anything that can't be clearly matched shows up as a to-do with a concrete suggestion and an explanation, you decide, and mika learns from it. Recurring payments like rent or insurance are automatically recognized by mika over time. Once all to-dos are at zero, your 2025 bookkeeping is complete.

  4. 4

    Create the annual financial statement and file the returns

    Once your bookkeeping is complete, mika guides you step by step through the annual financial statement: a completeness check, review of the bookings by our trained bookkeepers, and your sign-off as managing director. Balance sheet, profit and loss statement, and notes are generated directly from your bookkeeping. Corporate tax, trade tax, and annual VAT returns are created in mika and transmitted to the tax office directly through mika, no separate ELSTER organizational certificate needed. The Bundesanzeiger XML for the disclosure requirement is included as well.

The GmbH annual financial statements are a frustrating project. With mika they become a side issue for you.

Other tools expect you to do your GmbH's bookkeeping yourself, or you pay a tax advisor several thousand euros a year for it.

Most tools stop after the ongoing bookkeeping. Your tax advisor still handles the GmbH annual financial statements separately, at extra cost, in October.

And you still don't have a real time view of your own numbers.

FAQ

DATEV and Lexware are primarily built for tax advisors or traditional bookkeepers. mika is built for business owners without a bookkeeping background or prior knowledge, and goes further.

mika creates not just your ongoing bookkeeping, but also your complete annual financial statements, and submits them directly to the Finanzamt (your local tax office). Without a tax advisor.

Not for ongoing bookkeeping, VAT returns or annual financial statements.

For strategic tax questions (for example company restructuring, shareholdings, optimizing a managing director's salary), a tax advisor can still make sense as a consultant, but no longer for the compliance work.
