OpenRegistry has developed a new API that provides direct access to Germany's Handelsregister, the official registry of companies. This API returns raw, unaggregated data from individual regional courts, preserving original German labels and details like company names, legal forms, registered addresses, and officer roles. While it offers granular information on corporate structure and filings, it does not include ultimate beneficial ownership (UBO) data, which is maintained in a separate registry, nor does it automatically parse shareholder lists from PDF documents.
