Our company name was added wrong. Is there a way to change it?
The added name was: Die BASISberlin Filmproduktion [de]
the correct name would be: DIE BASISberlin Medien GmbH [de]

Hi Tobias -
Please note that credits need to be listed exactly as they appeared on-screen for the title. If there is an error, and your company was credited on-screen for the existing titles under "DIE BASISberlin Medien GmbH", you will need to submit corrections for those credits.
Otherwise, if your company has been credited on-screen under "Die BASISberlin Filmproduktion [de]", that name/company listing will need to remain in the database as is, so that we can preserve the credit as it appeared on-screen.
If your company has changed names you can create a new listing for your new company name and link the two listings with an "AKA" affiliation (which indicates that the company changed names).

Actually, I'm afraid I have to qualify the previous answer: we can correct the name if it's wrong, but we can't add the GmbH suffix, regardless of what appears onscreen.
As documented in our company name format guidelines it is our policy not to include corporate format suffixes such as LLC, GmbH, SarL, SpA etc. when listing companies. So GmbH can't be added, even if it appears on screen.
