Craft - registration in the Register of Trades Similar to Crafts

Any person who commences or terminates the independent operation of a trade similar to a craft as a standing trade shall immediately notify the Chamber of Crafts in whose chamber district his commercial establishment is located. In the case of legal entities, the names of the legal representatives shall also be notified, and in the case of partnerships, the names of the partners authorised to represent the entity shall be notified. A trade is a trade similar to a craft within the meaning of the Crafts Code if it is operated in a craft-related manner and is listed in Attachment B Section 2 of the Crafts Code (see legal bases). After notification of the trade similar to a craft, the Chamber of Crafts issues a confirmation of entry in the list of trades exempt from registration and trades similar to crafts. In order to be entered in the "Register of Owners of a Business of an Admission-Free Craft or a Trade Similar to a Craft", you do not need any proof of qualification or a master craftsman's title - unlike in the case of a craft that is subject to registration in the Register of Crafts.
