To qualify as 'gemeinnuetzig' (charitable), an e.V. must be recognised by the local Finanzamt (tax office) under the Abgabenordnung (AO). It is registered in the Zuwendungsempfaengerregister (ZER) maintained by the Bundeszentralamt fuer Steuern (BZSt).
You can verify Bundesverband der Kälbermäster e.V.'s charitable status in several ways.

Second, you can look up the association in the Vereinsregister (association register) at the local Amtsgericht (district court) via https://www.handelsregister.de/ - this confirms the legal form, registered address, and board members. Third, check whether the organisation holds the Freistellungsbescheid (tax-exemption notice) from its local Finanzamt - the notice is re-issued every three years and confirms the 'gemeinnuetzig' status under the Abgabenordnung. Legitimate charities publish this on their website or provide it on request.
