A business re-registration is always necessary if you relocate an already registered self-employed business with a fixed place of business (in the so-called "standing trade") within Berlin or change your commercial activities. If you are a trader and your name has changed, you must also re-register your business.
This is the case with:

• Relocation within Berlin: If you move the headquarters of your company or a branch office or a dependent branch of your company to a new location within the municipality. The business transfer registration must then be submitted to the public order office in whose district your new business location is located.
• Change of commercial activity: If you change the goods or services of your business. Example: The activity as a travel agency is discontinued and the business is continued as a newspaper business.
• Extension of commercial activities: If you additionally offer goods or services that are not customary in your previously registered business. Example: The activity as a travel agency is to be continued and expanded to include the sale of magazines.
• Change of the trader's name: If your surname changes, for example due to marriage.

You can also voluntarily report other changes with the business re-registration. For example, if you no longer carry out individual registered activities in your trade and wish to delete them from the trade register.

Information:

• If you relocate the headquarters of your company or a branch office or a dependent branch of your company to a new location outside the municipality (relocation outside Berlin), the business must be deregistered in Berlin and re-registered in the other federal state (at the new location) (see "Further information").
• When taking over an existing business, joining as a new managing partner or converting a company into a different legal form, a business registration is required (see "Further information").

The competent authority also forwards the trade re-registration 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 re-registering a trade is to enable the competent authority to monitor the exercise of the trade and to carry out statistical surveys.

Prerequisites

• You want to move your already registered business within Berlin, change your business activity or your name has changed.

• The re-registration of the trade must be carried out at the same time.
