Deregistration is always necessary if you are giving up an independent business with a fixed place of business (in the so-called "permanent trade").

This is the case if:

• 1. you want to completely terminate or discontinue the operation of your business.
• 2. you relocate the head office of your business or a branch office or a dependent branch of your business to a new location outside the municipality (outside Berlin). In this case, deregister your business with your previous competent public order office in Berlin. Then re-register the business with the trade authority at the new location in the new municipality.
• 3. Change the legal form of your business. Deregister your business under the previous legal form. Then re-register your business with a business registration under the new legal form.

Information:

1. If your business continues to exist and you only wish to report the partial cessation of individual commercial activities, you can voluntarily report this with a business re-registration. (see "Further information")
2. If you relocate the headquarters of your company or a branch office or a dependent branch of your company within the municipality (if relocating within Berlin) to a new location, it is sufficient to re-register your business with the public order office of the new business location. (see "Further information")

The competent authority also forwards the business deregistration to other bodies such as the tax office, the Chamber of Crafts or the Chamber of Industry and Commerce, the registry court and the employers' liability insurance association. The purpose of deregistering a trade is to enable the competent authority to monitor the exercise of the trade and to carry out statistical surveys.
