Trade office Hamburg
The responsible office is the trade office of the municipality where your business is based. For a business in Hamburg, that's the administration that accepts trade notifications there. You must register no later than when you start the activity.
Registration uses the same nationwide form (GewA 1). We fill it in with your details, you sign on your phone, and we send it the way your office accepts. The trade office then informs the tax office and the IHK or chamber of crafts itself.
