Detailed Explanation

A QR-Code Register Extract refers to an electronic register extract that additionally contains a machine-readable QR code. By simply scanning the code with a smartphone or tablet, the user is directed to the official judiciary website, where the authenticity of the document is confirmed in real-time. This QR code verification replaces the traditional stamp and signature verification, enhancing security and protecting against forgery. Companies, notaries, banks, and authorities save time and costs, as the electronic register extract can be immediately forwarded or archived as a PDF document with a qualified electronic signature. Particularly for commercial register and land register extracts, the QR code ensures transparent authentication. At the same time, the procedure meets all requirements of the EU eIDAS Regulation, ensuring cross-border recognition of the document. Thanks to digital availability, the QR-Code Register Extract can be requested around the clock, significantly reducing processing times.
