The Deutscher Tischtennis-Verband (DTTV) was the governing body for table tennis in the German Democratic Republic. It was a constituent sports association within the larger Deutscher Turn- und Sportbund, which was the primary sports authority in the country and a part of the National Front. Shortly after German reunification in 1990, the DTTV was absorbed by the German Table Tennis Association (DTTB).[1]
