1. Register a trade
Anyone starting a fixed-place trade must register it with the competent authority; procedural details are regional.
When?
A permanent trade generally has to be registered when it begins; activities requiring a permit must be authorised before starting.
Where / who?
Competent trade authority at the place of the business establishment. Trade registration is not determined solely from your private home address.
What to prepare?
Identity details, business/activity information and, for trades requiring a permit, the required evidence.
What to check?
Gewerbeanmeldung does not replace tax or professional-law registrations.
