Hey bunqers 🌈,

When opening your Business account in Germany, we might ask you for a Gewerbeanmeldung. We ask for these documents as part of our business verification and compliance process.

What is a Gewerbeschein?

The Gewerbeanmeldung is the official business registration certificate for self-employed people and companies in Germany. It confirms that you've registered your trade/business with your local Gewerbeamt (Trade Office).

How can I get the Gewerbeanmeldung?

You need to go to the Gewerbeamt (Trade Office) responsible for your business location. It is usually part of the city administration (Stadtverwaltung) or municipal office (Rathaus). You can: - In person at your local Gewerbeamt - By mail - Online (available in many cities now) You’ll need to complete the Gewerbeanmeldung form and provide necessary documents (ID, address registration, etc.).

How do I apply online?

Online sites for getting the document can change depending on where you’re operating from. To find whether there is a site to get the document online, you can search:

“Gewerbeanmeldung + [your city name]”

For example: Gewerbeanmeldung Berlin or Gewerbeanmeldung München After going to the office, you will receive a Gewerbeschein (the actual Gewerbeanmeldung certificate).



What is a Gewerbeschein?

The Gewerbeschein is the official certificate of trade registration. It proves that you’ve registered your business with the local Gewerbeamt (Trade Office). It's also referred to as the Gewerbeanmeldung.

How much does it cost?

Typically between €20 and €50, depending on the city or municipality.

Can I offer something else instead?

No, we need the Gewerbeanmeldung unless you are registered as an freiberufler in which case an Einkommensteuererklärung would be enough.

Additional tips

Please ensure that the Gewerbeanmeldung is the official registration document, either signed and stamped, or bearing a valid digital signature.
