Frequently asked questions

Is the owner's full name public?

Yes. The e.K. entry registers the proprietor as a natural person, authoritatively linking the trade name to the individual.

Why identify the owner precisely?

Court filings, debt collection and enforcement against a sole proprietorship must name the individual correctly — the register spelling is the safe source.

Does an e.K. have beneficial owners beyond the proprietor?

No — the registered owner is the business. For KYC purposes, one register lookup typically settles the ownership question.
