FAQ
How should I format German street addresses?
Follow German postal standards: "Straßenname Hausnummer" (e.g., "Musterstraße 123", "Am Marktplatz 45a"). Include apartment/suite numbers if relevant.
What if the address doesn't fit in one line?
Use the primary street and number in Address Line 1. Additional information like building names or complex numbers can go in Address Line 2 (BT-36).
Should I include PO Box information here?
No, if using a PO Box, put it in Address Line 1 as "Postfach [number]" but ensure this is the actual business address. Physical addresses are preferred for business registration.
