How do I change my bank details?

As a creator or an authorised representative, you can simply change your bank details in our Online Portal under the service My details in the area My bank details.

Do you not have access to the Online Portal yet? Find out here how to register.  

Alternatively, you can also notify us of your new bank details in writing. In that case, we need creators to provide their own signature, publishers must produce the signature of their respective Managing Director, in the case of a GbR [partnership under German law], signatures of all partners must be supplied unless a partner is authorised as a sole signatory and GEMA is aware of this. These must be communicated: IBAN and for countries outside of Germany the BIC, for bank connections in the USA also the ABA routing number.

Please use the bank details form (see below) and send us the bank details form signed by you as a pdf attachment by e-mail to mitgliederpartner@gema.de or by post to an GEMA Generaldirektion, Mitglieder & Partner, Rosenheimer Str. 11, 81667 München, Germany/Deutschland.
