Aha! Well, then it must be the Sitz of the Registeramt (if this is what the Austrians call the Handelsregister = commercial register).

I\'d say \"at the place [office] of the (competent = zuständigen) commercial register\" - I don\'t think that seat or any of the other options provided by Romain or Dietl/Lorenz fit your context.

Oh well, just for the sake of completeness: if this is the Amtssitz of a notary public, then the translation should read \"with (an) office at\".

Registrar of Companies, Hamburg, Germany

Erklärung:
Often "Amtssitz" is used for the combination of living quarters and official office for a high-ranking public official, like the White House, Schloss Bellevue, or 10 Downing Street.

Heldenplatz
Die (neue) Hofburg, Amtssitz des Bundespräsidenten
Dieser Teil der Hofburg ist der Leopoldinische Trakt und beherbergt heute den Amtssitz des Bundespräsidenten.

Square Heldenplatz
The (new) Hofburg, Residence of Austrian president
This part of Hofburg is called the Leopoldinische Trakt and contains the residence of the Austrian president (Bundespräsident)

That is why many dictionaries show the term "residence" but "residence" would be nonsense for your context.

"Official office" is also often shown in dictionaries, but I would not use that unless a street address is given. To write that the "official office" is Kalamazoo would sound peculiar to me.

From the usage shown below, I would go for "official location" if forced at gunpoint to translate the term "Amtssitz",

http://www.admin.ch/ch/d/sr/172_010/a58.html

"Amtssitz des Bundesrates, der Departemente und der Bundeskanzlei ist die Stadt Bern."

In your context, however, it might be possible to leave it out and write something like:

"Registrar of Companies, Hamburg, Germany"

I will check the lowest possible confidence level as usual because I am almost always guessing. :-)
