Deregister business

the municipal/city administration of the previous place of business

You can deregister your business in person, online, by post or fax. You can also deregister via the network of single points of contact.

• If you deregister in person or in writing, you must complete and personally sign the "Business Deregistration" form (GewA 3). The "GewA 3" form is available at the office responsible for deregistration or, depending on the service, can also be downloaded.
• You will receive a certificate of receipt for your business deregistration from the responsible office.
• The office responsible for deregistration forwards the business deregistration to other offices, such as the tax office, the employers' liability insurance association, the Chamber of Crafts or the Chamber of Industry and Commerce and, if applicable, the registry court.

You are obliged to deregister your business at the time of dissolution or change of legal form.

• Proof of identity (e.g. identity card or passport with registration certificate). In the case of electronic business re-registration, the competent authority may use other suitable and appropriate procedures to establish identity (e.g. PIN/TAN procedure, the electronic ID function, De-Mail or a self-declaration of identity).
• Copy of the extract from the commercial register if your company is entered in the commercial register (also: register of co-operatives, register of associations, register of foundations)

The amount of the fees is based on the municipal fee statutes.

If you have completed the form correctly and your documents are complete, the authorities will immediately certify receipt of your deregistration if you visit them in person. If you deregister in writing or electronically, you will receive confirmation of receipt of your business deregistration within 3 days.

If the cessation of the business is clearly established and you do not deregister your business, the deregistration will be carried out ex officio.

It may be necessary to make an appointment in advance for a personal visit. Enquire at the responsible office.
