Der DRV vertritt gegenüber dem Bundestag und der Bundesregierung sowie einer breiten Öffentlichkeit die Interessen der deutschen Reisewirtschaft, vor allem die der Reisebüros und Reiseveranstalter sowie der touristischen Dienstleister. Die Verbandsmitglieder zeichnen für einen Großteil des Branchenumsatzes verantwortlich. Insbesondere die Ausgestaltung des wirtschaftlichen und fiskalischen Handlungsrahmens, die Regulierung des internationalen Reiseverkehrs, Fragen des Verbraucherschutzes und die Absicherung von Verbrauchern gegen den Insolvenzeintritt von Reiseveranstaltern stehen im Fokus der Verbandstätigkeit. Im Zuge dessen werden parlamentarische Mittagessen und Abendveranstaltungen sowie Konferenzen durchgeführt, zu denen Regierungsmitglieder, Abgeordnete, deren Mitarbeiterinnen und Mitarbeiter sowie Vertreterinnen und Vertreter der Bundesministerien eingeladen werden. Schließlich werden im Bedarfsfall Stellungnahmen und Gutachten zu konkreten Regelungsvorhaben erarbeitet und übermittelt.

Deutscher Reiseverband e.V. is a registered nonprofit in Germany. Donations to recognized charitable organizations (gemeinnuetzige Organisationen) are tax-deductible up to 20% of your total income. You will need a donation receipt (Zuwendungsbestaetigung) from the organization for your tax return.
You can verify Deutscher Reiseverband e.V.'s charitable status in several ways. First, check the Zuwendungsempfaengerregister (ZER) at https://www.bzst.de/DE/Unternehmen/Zuwendungsempfaengerregister_organisation/zuwendungsempfaengerregister_organisation_node.html - the BZSt maintains this federal register of all organisations eligible to receive tax-deductible donations in Germany. 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.

German charities typically accept SEPA bank transfer (Ueberweisung) to the organisation's IBAN, SEPA direct debit (Lastschrift/Einzugsermaechtigung) for recurring donations, PayPal, credit card payments, and online payment processors like Stripe or Mollie. Many German charities use platforms like betterplace.org, GoFundMe, or their own Spendenseite (donation page). International donors can give via SEPA transfer (Germany is in the eurozone) or PayPal. For your donation to be tax-deductible, you need a Zuwendungsbestaetigung (donation receipt) from the organisation - for amounts up to 300 euros, a bank statement showing the transfer is sufficient.

Überflüssiger Polit Lobby Sumpf ! Teuer ohne Ende. Aber sich selber abfeiern Jahr für Jahr. Ich kann nur allen Mitgliedern dringend nahe legen : direkt aussteigen !
Trustpilot
dieser Verein vergibt ein "Gütesigel" für Reiseveranstalter mit dem Hinweis "Verpflichtung Kundefreundliches Marketing im Internet".Das kann ja auf Grund der vielen negativen Bewertungen für das Reiseportal byebye.de nicht zutreffen. Dennoch ziert sich die Webseite des Anbieters mit dem DRV Siegel.Die Info email Adresse vom DRV scheint auch nicht zu existieren. Dies schein ein Verein zu sein der Siegel zur Täuschung des Verbrauchers vergibt !

DRV könnte und sollte sich Deutsche Reine (Gelder) Verschwendug nennen meine Meinung nach. Wenn ich die Bewertungen lese und Erfahrungen von andere Betroffene in mein Umfeld höre dann bitte. Einfach Katastrophl.

Ich bin seit 31.12.2014 in Altersrente. Seit Antragsstellung bis zum Bescheid und darüber hinaus bis heute, ist die Bearbeitung zügig und problemlos erfolgt!Besonders hervorheben möchte ich in diesem Zusammenhang eine Sachbearbeiterin in Gera.Ich kam zufällig telefonisch zu Frau Krage in Gera. Sie beantwortete meine Fragen kompetent und überaus freundlich! Sie hat mich selbst aktiv! angerufen um mich zu beraten und mir Tipps zu geben! So was bin ich von einer Behörde nicht gewohnt. Umso schöner, sowas erlebt zu haben! Weiter so!

Der Versand der Unterlagen per Mainpostlogidtik in Raum Ufr./WÜ ist eine Katastrophe. Dieses mal hat ie Zustellung zwar geklappt, aber ih habe mehrere Senungen vorher nicht erhalten, musste mehrfach nachhacken, dabei laufen Fristen aus..... aber dem DRV scheint ein paar Cent zu sparen wichtiger zu sein als sichere und schnelle Zustellung durch bekannte gute Zusteller ((keine oder unsichere Zustellung durch Mainpostlogistik zB auch Bei Post von ÜW-RhoenGrabfeld)). In diesen Fällen bestätigen jeweils MA am Telefon, dass sie die Zustände wohl kennen, aber nichts ändern können, Diese Gewalt liegt in der Chefetage - Vorstand!!! Un denen scheint er Kunde nicht so wichtig zu sein.

Ich brwerte die Rentenversicherung in Bergheim bei der Knappschaft.Nachdem ich zuvor telefonischen Kontakt mit Herrn Gartzlaff und Herrn Irrlenbusch hatte, welche auch überaus freundlich waren und selbst mir plausibel machen konnten, was wichtig war hatte ich gestern einen persönlichen Termin bei Frau Pesch. Muss dazu sagen ich leide unter einer Angststörung. Frau Pesch war sehr engagiert und empathisch. Sie nahm mir meine Angst und war sehr einfühlsam.

Unfreundlich, unzuverlässig, völlig realitätsfern...Auf Anfragen und Nachrichten wird nicht geantwortet... In Anrufen werden immer andere Sachen behauptet - je nach dem, wen man dran hat... Sachbearbeiter 1 sagt Antrag angekommen... Wird bearbeitet... Monate später behauptet Sachbearbeiter 2 ein Antrag wäre nicht eingegangen, obwohl Sachbearbeiter 1 daraus zitiert hatte...Es wird auch gerne behauptet, dass Post verschickt wurde... Es wird gerne abgelehnt, usw.Auch mehr als lächerlich: es werden Fahrkosten zum Gutachter in Höhe von 0,20€ pro gefahrenen km erstattet. Darin seien auch die Parkgebühren bereits enthalten... Wo kann man bitte z.T. 3 Stunden lang für dieses Geld parken?!

total schlecht , Anfragen werden nicht beantwortet , weder tel. noch per mail noch per Post , tel. Aussagen sind wertlose , da stündlich anders , Bearbeitungszeiten , wenn überhaupt reagiert wird , super miserabel
