Procedure
Registration:
To apply, contact a notary. The notary will advise you on how to formulate the application. Registration is carried out exclusively electronically, and a publicly certified document is created for this purpose. The declaration is provided with an electronic signature (in accordance with the § 39a Notarization Act/BeurkG) and sent to the electronic court and administrative mailbox of the registry court. After successfully registering for entry in the commercial register, you will receive a registration notification. The entry will also be published in the Official Journal of the European Union for information purposes.
Changes:
Has important information about your company changed, such as the company headquarters, legal form or authorized representatives? Then please have the commercial register entry corrected immediately.
The registration is carried out in the same way exclusively through a notary.
Length of time
The registry court must decide on the entry immediately after receipt of the application. If all documents are available and no objections from the court are necessary, entries are usually made within a few working days.
Fees
For entries in the commercial register, fixed fees are charged in accordance with the Commercial Register Fees Ordinance.
