TÜV SÜD Rail GmbH
TÜV SÜD Rail GmbH is a Private limited company (Ltd.) registered in Germany under HRB 154539 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 TÜV SÜD Rail 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 11 September 2026.

The largest of these is TÜV SÜD Aktiengesellschaft, holding 50% — the largest recorded stake — followed by TÜV SÜD Aktiengesellschaft at 50%.

Directors and officers of TÜV SÜD Rail GmbH
Two officers are currently on record for TÜV SÜD Rail GmbH, filed with Handelsregister (Commercial Register). Martin Webhofer and Alexander Förster both serve as Geschäftsführer (managing director). Management authority at TÜV SÜD Rail 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.

Data availability
Those 2 subsidiaries span Germany, Netherlands, Norway 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. One of the 2 go a level deeper still, with its own further subsidiaries recorded beneath it — additional ownership layers this view doesn't expand.
