Detailed description

The debtors' register is an official register in which individuals and companies are entered who do not meet their payment obligations and against whom certain enforcement measures have been unsuccessful.


Debtors are registered if, for example,

  • the asset disclosure was submitted,
  • the disclosure of assets was refused or
  • an enforcement attempt was unsuccessful.

The entry is intended to protect creditors and warn of payment defaults.



As a contractual partner, you can view the directory to check solvency.



You can view your own data.



Under certain conditions, you can obtain information about other people or companies.



One printout contains all current entries for the respective debtor.
