How this service works
German company lookup in the official Handelsregister (commercial register) by HRB or HRA number or company name. Returns legal name, status, legal form, register number and registered address in a schema shared across countries.
Output
Returns a structured JSON object including the echoed query, ISO country code (DE), registry name (Handelsregister), match count, and an array of matched companies each containing: current legal name, registration number, active/inactive/unknown status, legal form, founding date, registered address (street, postal code, city, country code), activities, and website.
Example use cases
Vendor due diligence before contract signing
“Before we sign this supplier contract, can you verify that 'Bosch GmbH' is an active registered company in Germany? I need its HRB number, legal form, and registered address from the Handelsregister.”
Checking a company by HRB number
“I have a German company registration number HRB 12300 Berlin — can you pull the official Handelsregister record and tell me the company's legal name, status, and address?”
KYB screening for a new business partner
“We're onboarding a new German partner called 'Siemens AG' — can you confirm they're active in the Handelsregister and fetch their official legal details including registration number and registered office?”

Endpoint
GEThttps://companies.use.x402atlas.com/german-company-data?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you specifically need to look up a company registered in Germany via the official Handelsregister. It uses a normalized cross-country schema consistent with sibling endpoints for UK, France, Belgium, Czech Republic, Finland, and Norway, making it ideal for multi-country compliance workflows. Prefer it over generic web searches when you need authoritative legal entity data such as official registration number, legal form, and registered address for KYB, due diligence, or contract verification purposes.
Side effects
- No matching company found — returns count 0 with a note field explaining the zero-match result
- Ambiguous name query returns multiple companies — agent must disambiguate using register number
- Invalid or malformed HRB/HRA number format returns an error or zero results
- Company exists but has incomplete data in the source registry — some fields may be null
- Query string exceeds 200 character limit — request rejected
- Network or upstream Handelsregister unavailability causes timeout or 5xx error
