Notarkammer Brandenburg

What Notarkammer Brandenburg does

Notarkammer Brandenburg is the statutory professional self-governing body (Körperschaft des öffentlichen Rechts) for all notaries (Notarinnen und Notare) practicing in the German state of Brandenburg. Established under the Bundesnotarordnung (BNotO) and headquartered at Dortustraße 71, 14467 Potsdam, it operates with a small administrative staff of 8 employees and represents 67 notary members plus 15 notary assessors in training as of November 2025. The chamber is supervised by the Ministry of Justice of the State of Brandenburg and is affiliated with the national Bundesnotarkammer. Its leadership comprises President Hagen Stavorinus, Vice President Hans-Ulrich Tegge, and Managing Director Stefanie Rhode, supported by a board of additional members.

The chamber's core offerings are public-information and member-services products rather than commercial software: a Notarsuche (notary search) tool, a Urkundensuche (document search) service, and a comprehensive notarial services information portal covering real estate, inheritance, corporate, family, emergency planning, and dispute avoidance matters. Member-facing infrastructure includes a Kammerportal and an annual Fortbildungsplan (continuing education calendar). Supporting educational offerings include the LL.B. 'Recht im Notariat' bachelor program developed with SRH Hochschule Heidelberg and a two-year senior notary staff training program administered by the Ländernotarkasse Leipzig. Technology is standard office and web infrastructure; the central www.notar.de platform hosts the search tools.

Commercially, the chamber generates no customer revenue. It is funded via member contributions, and individual notaries independently bill clients under the statutory Gerichts- und Notarkostengesetz (GNotKG) fee schedule. The chamber's go-to-market is community-led: it acts as a representative body, professional-development provider, and complaint-handling authority for its members, while driving public awareness of notary services through its website, LinkedIn presence, and the nationwide notar.de platform. Customers served by the underlying notaries are the general public and businesses in Brandenburg requiring legally binding documentation for property, family, corporate, and inheritance matters.

Others

• Ländernotarkasse Leipzig: Joint institution of several eastern German notary chambers that administers training programs (e.g., senior notary staff) and shared services. Functions as an ecosystem partner supporting Notarkammer Brandenburg's continuing-education offerings.

Direct peers

• Notarkammer Sachsen-Anhalt: Public-law notary chamber for Saxony-Anhalt. Comparable size and structure to Brandenburg, also in eastern Germany, and operates under the same Bundesnotarordnung.
• Notarkammer Thüringen: Public-law notary chamber for Thuringia. Another eastern German state chamber with the same statutory basis and similar member-services scope as Notarkammer Brandenburg.
• Notarkammer Mecklenburg-Vorpommern: Public-law notary chamber for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, another small eastern German state. Directly comparable to Brandenburg in scale, mandate, and regional scope.
• Notarkammer Sachsen: Public-law notary chamber for the state of Saxony. Comparable mandate, governance structure, and member-service portfolio as Notarkammer Brandenburg; another eastern German state chamber under the same federal framework.
• Notarkammer Berlin: Public-law professional chamber for notaries in Berlin. Operates under the same Bundesnotarordnung framework as Brandenburg, with similar self-governance, supervisory, and member-service functions; the closest peer by structure and mandate.

Broad incumbents

• Bundesnotarkammer: The federal-level umbrella organization of all German notary chambers. Operates central infrastructure (Notarportal, Zentrales Testamentsregister, notar.de) on which Notarkammer Brandenburg depends; comparable in function but at national scale rather than a single state.

Regional players

• Notarkammer Bayern: Public-law notary chamber for Bavaria, a much larger German state. Operates the same kind of statutory self-governance but at significantly greater scale and is therefore a useful regional benchmark rather than a direct head-to-head peer.
