Auctioning business: Notification of holding an auction

The auctioneer must submit notification for each auction at least two weeks prior to the intended auction date. Notification must be submitted to the competent Public Order Office for the district in which the auction will be held and to the Chamber of Commerce and Industry Berlin. The notification must be submitted in writing or electronically and must include information regarding the place, time and type of goods auctioned.

In exceptional cases, in particular if the goods to be auctioned are perishable, the authority may shorten the two week notification period upon request.

No notification is necessary for auctioning agricultural inventory, agricultural and forestry products or livestock.

Only second-hand goods must be auctioned. Exceptions apply for new goods or consumable items, for inherited goods, insolvency assets and goods that are auctioned in the course of a business termination or goods sold at public auctions, due to legal provisions.
