Deutsches Jugendherbergswerk Landesverband Bayern e.V. is an eingetragener Verein (e.V.) - a registered association, the most common legal form for nonprofits in Germany. An e.V. is a membership-based legal entity registered with the local Vereinsregister (association register) at the Amtsgericht (district court).

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 Deutsches Jugendherbergswerk Landesverband Bayern 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.

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.

Jugendherberge legt keinen Wert auf neue bzw. bestehende Mitglieder.Ich hatte der Jugendherberge mitgeteilt, dass ich den Jahresbeitrag per Überweisung begleichen werde (vorher: Lastschrift). Dieses wurde ignoriert und eine Lastschriftabbuchung vorgenommen, die storniert wurde, da u.a. mir (auf Anforderung) nicht deren Bankverbindung mitgeteilt wurde.Meine Mails sind bisher nicht beantwortet, so dass ich mir vorbehalte die Mitgliedschaft mit sofortiger Wirkung zu kündigen. Es gibt Alternativen wie Hostels, Pensionen etc.

⚠️ Vorsicht, wer über andere Buchungswebseiten hier ein Übernachtung bucht erlebt eventuell eine böse Überraschung: Nachdem die Buchung nicht mehr Stornierbar bestätigt ist, wird man gezwungen plötzlich noch eine Jahresmitgliedschaft abschließen. An dieser Stelle hat man nur noch die Optionen Rechtsstreit oder pro Person 22,50€ (Stand 2025) extra zu bezahlen. Ich wundere mich, dass solch unfair wirkenden Praktiken heutzutage überhaupt noch legal sind.

Preisbeispiel: JH Heidelberg (3x Übernachtet) 86 Euro, (Gäste grapschen alles an und wenn man etwas später kommt ist das Frühstückt auch sehr dünn, sollte doch eine permanente Aufsicht sein)8 km auswärts Landhotel 49 Euro Einzelzimmer und Fernseher, medizinische Matratze, renoviert- top. Ich werde nach 58 Jahren meine Mitgliedschaft kündigen. (Datum der Erfahrung ist nicht der heutige Tag). Ich war selbst Herbergsvater ehrenhalber.
Trustpilot
Leider kann ich nicht positiv berichten. Einerseits war der Preis für eine Übernachtung mit Frühstück unangemessen hoch und die Unterkunft in die Jahre gekommen sowie das Essen sehr spartanisch. Andererseits wurde ich beim Abschluss einer Mitgliedschaft abgezockt. Ich zahlte den vollen Jahresbeitrag im Dezember 2025 bei der Übernachtung für 2025 und mir wurde zusätzlich in der Folgewoche der anteilige Beitrag 2025 nochmal vom Konto abgezogen. Eine Mail mit der Schilderung des Sachverhalts und Bitte um Rückzahlung wurde ignoriert. Das Ganze finde ich sehr fragwürdig.
Trustpilot
Normalerweise dürfte es gar keinen Stern geben, zumindest was die Bürokräfte angeht. Habe fristgerecht im September 2025 gekündigt, postalisch. Jetzt wird behauptet es wäre nie eine Kündigung eingegangen und die fordern den Mitgliedsbeitrag. Das ist Abzocke ! Nach fast 2 Monaten kommt dann auch Mal ne Mail per Antwort, auf das Nachfragen, was das soll, nachdem ich eine halbe Stunde vorher angerufen habe.
