I’m worried about fraud and want to confirm that a company exists in the Amtsgericht register.

This feature helps you verify whether a company is officially registered with the Amtsgericht (German local court commercial register). It reduces fraud risk by letting you confirm basic existence and registration details before you pay, sign, or share sensitive information.

This feature supports checks against the Amtsgericht register to confirm that a company exists as a legally registered entity. You use it when you have doubts about a seller, supplier, employer, or business partner and want an official registration signal. The feature guides you to look up the company using identifiers such as the company name and, where available, the registration number (e.g., HRB/HRA). It helps you match results to the company you are dealing with by comparing key details like registered name, legal form, and registered seat. The primary benefit is reducing fraud and impersonation risk before making payments, signing contracts, or sharing personal data. It also supports routine due diligence for onboarding vendors and assessing counterparties. If a company cannot be found, the feature helps you treat that as a warning sign and prompts you to double-check spelling, legal form, or alternative names. The feature is intended for quick verification and does not replace professional legal advice or deeper compliance checks. Typical use cases include marketplace transactions, advance-payment invoices, new B2B relationships, and verifying companies contacted via email or phone.
