The register splits KG participants into two classes: general partners, who manage and are personally liable without limit, and limited partners, liable only up to the registered Haftsumme. For credit decisions, the extract answers exactly who stands behind the firm and to what extent.
With the ubiquitous GmbH & Co. KG, 'unlimited' liability sits with a limited company — so serious due diligence covers both register records.
Supplier vetting, fund and holding-structure KYC (many German funds are KGs), contract signing verification, and estate or partner disputes. We deliver a structured record plus branded PDF, live-fetched, from €9.99.
HRA number and register court, seat, the general partner(s) (Komplementär), each limited partner with their registered liability amount, plus Prokura and status entries.
A KG whose general partner is a GmbH — combining partnership taxation with corporate-style liability limitation. The extract names the GmbH; checking that company's own record completes the picture.
