Article summary
From 2027, child benefit will be paid out without an application. Families must prepare for this because the law is intended to simplify the application process. Parents currently receive 259 euros per child per month, regardless of the number of children. The new process is based on the “Once Only” principle, in which data is automatically exchanged between authorities. For the time being, nothing will change for existing child benefit recipients, but for future parents the reform will bring bureaucratic relief and automatic payment of child benefit.
