Notarkammer Koblenz

What Notarkammer Koblenz does

Notarkammer Koblenz is a Körperschaft des öffentlichen Rechts (public law corporation) established in 1949 under §66 of the Bundesnotarordnung (BNotO). It serves as the statutory professional chamber for all notaries operating within the Oberlandesgerichtsbezirk Koblenz in the federal state of Rheinland-Pfalz, a jurisdiction that spans four Landgericht districts: Koblenz, Mainz, Trier, and Bad Kreuznach. The chamber is led by President Dr. Thomas Steinhauer and managed by Geschäftsführer Dr. Stephan Biehl, with a lean staff of approximately 15 employees, and is subject to legal supervision (Rechtsaufsicht) by the Ministry of Justice of Rheinland-Pfalz.

Its core service offering is regulatory, educational, and administrative rather than commercial. The chamber administers the full notarial talent pipeline: a three-year apprenticeship and chamber-administered examinations for Notarfachangestellte (notarial administrative staff); the multi-year Anwärterdienst for Notarassessor(inn)en entering the profession; and a two-tier continuing education program (Notarfachassistent/in and Notarfachreferent/in) co-developed with the Rheinische Notarkammer and Saarländische Notarkammer. It also handles complaints against member notaries, runs twice-yearly in-person Mitarbeiterfortbildungen (spring in Koblenz, autumn alternating between Mainz and Trier), and offers discounted access to the DAI eLearning platform via cooperation with the Deutsches Anwaltsinstitut. Public-facing services include the Notarsuche notary search tool (redirecting to the national notar.de portal) and informational content for citizens on beurkundung, beglaubigung, and related notarial acts.

The chamber is funded entirely by mandatory membership dues (Pflichtbeiträge) from its notary members; it does not sell commercial products. Its technology footprint is limited to a WordPress-based website managed by rdts AG (Trier) with a member login area and links to external platforms such as notar.de. Strategic relationships include long-standing partnerships with Notarkammer Thüringen (since 1990), Notarkammer Litauen (since 1992), Notarkammer Pfalz, the Rheinische Notarkammer, the Saarländische Notarkammer, the Bundesnotarkammer, the Steuerberaterverband Rheinland-Pfalz, and the Verein für das Rheinische Notariat e.V. The chamber's 75th anniversary was marked on 5 September 2024 at Kurfürstliches Schloss Koblenz.
