The term &#8220;permanent business establishment&#8221; is derived from commercial law and refers to other branches or subsidiaries of the company that are established as business premises but are dependent on the head office. They are therefore branch offices that are not allowed to carry a business name other than that of the head office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Juristisch gesehen handelt es sich im Wesentlichen um eine einheitliche Gesch\u00e4ftsabwicklung an separaten physischen Standorten. Rechnungen werden auch im Namen des Zentralb\u00fcros ausgestellt. Es ist keine Registrierung des st\u00e4ndigen Gesch\u00e4ftszentrums im Handelsregister erforderlich. Jedoch muss jedes st\u00e4ndige Gesch\u00e4ftszentrum bei dem entsprechenden Handelsamt registriert sein.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The details of the head office (business name, registration court, and commercial register number) must therefore be specified on the business letters of the permanent business establishment. In addition, the designation &#8220;Regensburg permanent business establishment&#8221; can be used. In the case of a head office not registered in the German commercial register, the registration information for the foreign company shall be indicated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An essential difference between an officially registered branch office and a commercial head office is in the degree of independence of the branch, which the company itself usually determines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"hs-callout-type-tip\" data-hs-callout-type=\"tip\">\n<div>\n<h2><strong>HOW WE CAN HELP YOU<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<ul>\n<li>Consultinghouse kann expandierende Unternehmen bei der Gr\u00fcndung unterst\u00fctzen<\/li>\n<li>Registrierung beim Handelsregister und beim \u00f6rtlichen Gewerbeamt<\/li>\n<li>Wir unterst\u00fctzen die Abstimmung mit deutschen Beh\u00f6rden<\/li>\n<li>Wir unterst\u00fctzen Sie dabei, die geltenden Anforderungen bei Gesch\u00e4ften in Deutschland einzuhalten<\/li>\n\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.consultinghouse.eu\/de\/kontakt\/#contact-form\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Copy of Tech Website in Blue Purple White Gradients Style (2)\" class=\"hs-image-align-none\" height=\"387\" style=\"height: auto; width: 688px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.consultinghouse.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Copy20of20Tech20Website20in20Blue20Purple20White20Gradients20Style202.png\" width=\"688\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.consultinghouse.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Copy20of20Tech20Website20in20Blue20Purple20White20Gradients20Style202.png 344w, https:\/\/www.consultinghouse.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Copy20of20Tech20Website20in20Blue20Purple20White20Gradients20Style202.png 688w, https:\/\/www.consultinghouse.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Copy20of20Tech20Website20in20Blue20Purple20White20Gradients20Style202.png 1032w, https:\/\/www.consultinghouse.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Copy20of20Tech20Website20in20Blue20Purple20White20Gradients20Style202.png 1376w, https:\/\/www.consultinghouse.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Copy20of20Tech20Website20in20Blue20Purple20White20Gradients20Style202.png 1720w, https:\/\/www.consultinghouse.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Copy20of20Tech20Website20in20Blue20Purple20White20Gradients20Style202.png 2064w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 688px) 100vw, 688px\"><\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Learn about &#8220;permanent business establishments,&#8221; which are like extra parts of a company&#8217;s main office.
