BASF SE

BASF SE sits at the top of a group of 138 entities that report it as their consolidating parent, from its registered address in Ludwigshafen am Rhein, Germany.

The LEI has been on record for 12 years, since 31 Jan 2014. That is about 6 years earlier than the median LEI in Germany, which dates from 2020 — an early adopter by local standards.

The next annual re-validation is due 16 Feb 2027, 117 days from now.

The record has not changed since we began archiving it on 6 Jul 2026. Any future change to name, status, address, ownership or renewal date will be captured here, because GLEIF publishes only the current state and superseded values are otherwise lost.

The entity is registered with Commercial Register under registry number HRB 6000, and the LEI itself is issued and maintained by Herausgebergemeinschaft Wertpapier-Mitteilungen Keppler, Lehmann GmbH & Co. KG, one of the Local Operating Units accredited by GLEIF.

Beyond the LEI, 4 ISINs, 1 BIC are mapped to this entity in the GLEIF cross-reference files.

No direct accounting-consolidating parent is reported, because no controlling person is known. GLEIF requires this to be stated explicitly rather than left blank, so the absence is itself a data point.

No ultimate accounting-consolidating parent is reported, because no controlling person is known. GLEIF requires this to be stated explicitly rather than left blank, so the absence is itself a data point.

The LEI registration is issued, and the entity status (active) records whether the legal entity itself still exists. The two are independent: an LEI can lapse while the company trades on, and it can stay issued after the company has been dissolved.
