Registervollmacht

The Registervollmacht is a special power of attorney in corporate law that authorizes a person to make legally binding register entries for a company with the commercial register. It is typically used when shareholders, managing directors, or authorized signatories cannot personally sign a commercial register application at the notary, such as for the formation of a GmbH, an amendment to the articles of association, a change of managing director, or the granting/modification of a power of attorney. The Registervollmacht is regularly notarized and provided to the notary or an employee appointed by them as a so-called submission power of attorney for electronic transmission via EGVP. The Registervollmacht saves the company time and costs because the immediate personal presence of all authorized individuals is not required, while maintaining the formal requirements of § 12 HGB. Important: The power of attorney is exclusively for specific register applications and does not replace a comprehensive organizational or action power of attorney.
