Admission of a European lawyer to the Bar Revocation

If you do not provide proof of continued admission to the bar in your country of origin every three years, your admission to the bar may be revoked.

If you have been admitted to the Bar as a European lawyer, you must prove regularly, as a rule every three years, that you are still admitted to the bar in your country of origin. Otherwise, your recognition as a European lawyer in Germany will be withdrawn again.
