In brief
The key facts about the Impressum obligation under § 5 DDG — short and clear.
Almost every commercially operated website in Germany needs an Impressum — regardless of legal form or size. The relevant law is § 5 DDG (Digital Services Act implementation), which replaced the TMG in 2024.
Name and a physical postal address, an email address (a contact form alone is not enough), and — depending on the legal form — the register court, registration number, authorised representatives, VAT ID, or details of a regulated profession.
A missing or incomplete Impressum can trigger a competitor cease-and-desist (Abmahnung) under unfair-competition law and a fine under § 33 DDG. A proper Impressum takes minutes to create — and spares you the trouble.
