The Walt Disney Company (Germany) GmbH is a Private limited company (Ltd.) registered in Germany under HRB 131127 München, and its current status with Handelsregister (Commercial Register) is active. Its registered address on file is München, Germany. 2 shareholders are on record for The Walt Disney Company (Germany) GmbH, and since every one of them is a company rather than an individual, this particular filing does not on its own establish an ultimate beneficial owner (UBO) — identifying one would mean tracing the ownership of each shareholding company in turn. This profile is sourced directly from Handelsregister (Commercial Register) and was last updated on 25 September 2026.

Shareholders

Shareholders of The Walt Disney Company (Germany) GmbH

The largest of these is The Walt Disney Company Limited, holding 99.6% — a majority holding — followed by The Walt Disney Company Limited at 0.4%.

Officers

Directors and officers of The Walt Disney Company (Germany) GmbH

Three of the 17 officer records shown for The Walt Disney Company (Germany) GmbH are current appointments, filed with Handelsregister (Commercial Register). Eun Park and CHAKIRA GAVAZZI both serve as Geschäftsführer (managing director); Helen Richards (appointed 2019-08-29) serves as Officer. The remaining 14 records shown (Barton K. Boyd, Claus Holst-Gydesen and 12 others) are former appointments that have since been resigned. Management authority at The Walt Disney Company (Germany) GmbH sits with these individuals, not with shareholders, who are covered separately and hold ownership rather than control. The source filing doesn't specify representation authority — whether officers can act individually or must sign jointly to bind the company — so that detail isn't available here.

Those 1 subsidiary spans Germany, Poland jurisdictions, though this list should not be read as complete — subsidiaries only become visible here where shareholder data has actually been filed with a register, so holdings in jurisdictions without that filing simply won't appear.
