What does disclosure at the Unternehmensregister cost?
The Unternehmensregister fee depends only on the size class. What makes the difference is the conversion charge for PDF, Office files and scans. The calculator shows it for your accounts.
What this calculator compares
Filed directly, you pay the register fee and the conversion charge: 1.75 ct per visible character without spaces, plus VAT. If any part of the order is scanned, the whole order costs 2.50 ct per character instead of 1.75 ct.
With Uregistry you file XML. The conversion charge disappears; the register fee and the €20 per graphic stay the same. Uregistry costs €9, €19 or €39 per filing by size class, plus VAT, and is free during the closed beta.
Not included: the annual fee, the one-time identification on the Publikations-Plattform and your own effort. The fee structure with sources is on the deadlines, formats, costs page.

Both routes also pay the annual fee (€3 or €6) and the one-time identification on the Publikations-Plattform. They do not change the comparison.
