Service Description
The owners of trades requiring a license are entered in the register of tradesmen.
The Register of Craftsmen is the central register in which the owners of businesses in trades requiring a license (Annex A of the Crafts Code with 41 trades) in their district are entered with the trade they are practicing or, if they practice several trades, with these.
The Register of Craftsmen serves to monitor the professional and factual quality of trade services in the skilled crafts sector. Entry in the Register of Craftsmen is a prerequisite for a full trade license.
Only natural persons, legal entities and partnerships entered in the Register of Craftsmen are permitted to independently operate a craft requiring a license as a standing trade. It is an administrative offense to operate a standing trade without proper registration in the register of craftsmen and can be punished with a fine or a trade/trade ban.
The Chamber of Skilled Crafts checks whether the requirements for entry in the Register of Skilled Crafts are met at the time of application and determines the affiliation to the individual trades requiring registration.
The Chamber of Skilled Crafts issues a certificate of entry in the register of skilled crafts(skilled crafts card).
