Aktuelle Hinweise zu dieser Dienstleistung

Please note delays in processing!

The Senate Department for Economics, Energy and Public Enterprises is currently introducing new software for processing commercial law matters in Berlin's public order offices. This involves migrating extensive data sets. In addition, the new software must be integrated into workflows and the product further adapted for use in Berlin's public order offices. Due to this comprehensive system changeover, there may be delays in the processing of commercial law matters.
Such challenges are common during software conversions. We are actively working to stabilise the processes as soon as possible. Your applications and notifications will be processed as quickly as possible. We apologise for any inconvenience and thank you for your understanding!

Please note: By submitting your business registration, you have already fulfilled your obligation under Section 14 (1) of the Trade Regulation Act (GewO). You can commence your commercial activities immediately after registration. However, this does not apply to activities that require official approval. The confirmation of your business registration is not an administrative act, but merely an acknowledgment of receipt of your registration. The delay in processing will not result any disadvantages for you under commercial law.

ermöglichen.
