Continuation of a business by proxy Approval
The competent authority may, following a business prohibition, authorise, on request, that the operation be continued by a deputy to ensure the proper management of the business. Approval is required.
The responsibility lies with the district, the district-free city, the large independent city and the independent municipality in whose district the activity is to be carried out.
This procedure can also be handled by a "Single Contact Person". The "Single Contact Person" is a special service offered by the municipalities and the country for service providers.
- legally binding business prohibition or
- Prohibition of trade with order of immediate execution
- required personal reliability of the deputy and
- the conditions laid down for the activity in question
- If necessary, identity card or passport
Fees in accordance with Appendix 1 to Section 1 paragraph 1 general fee regulations of the Land of Lower Saxony (AllGO) in accordance with No. 40.1.17.2 are payable.
There are no deadlines to be observed. However, the authorisation must be in place before the delegation can be admitted. It is therefore advisable to submit the necessary application as early as possible.
The Trade Code does not prescribe how the application is to be made. However, for reasons of legal certainty, it is advisable to submit the application in writing and in a signed form.
Prior to approval, special supervisory authorities may be heard for the activity, the Chamber of Commerce or Crafts or The Chamber of Crafts and, in the case of a trade prohibition, the examination association to which it belongs to a cooperative. If the competent authority and the authority which have ordered the prohibition are not identical, the prohibitive authority shall also be consulted in advance.
