What licenses do I need specificly for operating a business with Bitcoin? In Germany.

I think that you will need a VAT certificate in order to operate a bitcoin business in Germany. Try ask at the Finanzamt (Finance Ministry) from informations regarding  bitcoin businesses  in Germany.

I guess it would depend on the type of business. If you are making homemade jelly and you want to sell it online for bitcoin, you are not going to need a special bitcoin license. If you are going to be holding other people's coins like an exchange that's when you are going to need a license.
