LUCID packaging register check: is this company or brand registered in Germany?

Look up a company name, brand, LUCID register number or tax number in the public German packaging register (Verpackungsregister LUCID). Shops and marketplaces that sell packaged goods into Germany use it to see whether a supplier is registered. No login, no code. Type a name, click Start, download Excel. The same fields are the API input.

A row with found = false means the public search returned no match. That is a result, not an error.

How to check a supplier in 4 steps

1. Type a company or brand. The form is filled with Adidas.
2. Choose Company name or Brand.
3. Click Start. Open Output and export Excel.
4. Optional: turn on Only new matches and schedule it weekly for a supplier list.

What you get

FAQ

Does “not found” mean the company is illegal? No. The name may be spelled differently, or the company may be registered under another legal name. Try the brand and the tax number.

Do I need a LUCID login? No. This uses the public register search, not the token API.

Is the system-participation contract included? No. The public register shows the registration, not the contract with a system operator.
