Leistungen A-Z

If you set up a limited partnership (KG), you are obliged to register it for entry in the commercial register. Only through registration does the KG arise and is fully legally competent. The registration of a KG, which already operates a commercial business, on the other hand, is only legally expressive, since the company already exists before registration.

There must be a partnership agreement.

The registration of a limited partnership must contain:

• the surnames, first names, dates of birth and places of residence of all shareholders
• the name of the company and the place where it has its registered office, as well as the domestic business address
• the power of representation of the partners
• all limited partners and the amount of the contribution of each of them

The application must specify the location of the business premises and the object of the business that differs from the domestic business address, insofar as this does not result from the company.

The fees for entry in the commercial register depend on the registration effort.

Registration

To apply, please contact a notary.

• The notary advises on the formulation of the application.
• The registration takes place exclusively electronically, for this purpose a publicly certified document is created.
• The declaration is provided with an electronic signature (within the meaning of § 39a Beurkundungsgesetz/BeurkG) and sent to the electronic court and administrative mailbox of the register court.

Changes
Relevant information about your company, such as the registered office, the legal form or the authorized representative, has changed? Then please have the commercial register entry corrected immediately.

The registration takes place in the same way exclusively through a notary.

The registry court (at the local court) at the registered office of your company is responsible for the registration. The registration is carried out by a notary's office.
