Register residence
Source: BUS Rheinland-PfalzIf you move into a new home, you must register with the registration office responsible for you at your new place of residence within two weeks of moving in.
If you are under 16 years of age, you must be registered by the person whose home you are moving into.
If you are over 18 years of age and a carer or guardian has been appointed for you who can determine your residence, then your new home must be registered by your carer or guardian.
You only have to register newborn babies born in Germany if they move into a different home to that of their parents or mother.
To register your new home, you must come in person to the registration office responsible for you or authorize another person to do so.
If you are unable to register the apartment yourself, you can authorize another person to do so. The authorized person must bring the following documents with them:
- pre-filled registration form
- power of attorney
- Identity document (identity card, passport or vehicle registration document)
However, this does not work if you are registering with us for the first time from abroad.
- You appear in person at the registration office responsible for you or are represented by a person with power of attorney.
- You fill out the registration form and sign it (except in the case of an automated registration register).
- You submit all the necessary documents.
- Finally, you will receive an official confirmation of registration from the registration office.
You have moved into a new apartment in Germany.
Please bring the following documents with you:
- Registration form: The registration office will have this ready for you. The required data is usually entered directly into the automated process by the clerks at the registration office.
- Identity card or passport as proof of identity and to change the housing details or national passport with residence permit or visa
- Confirmation of moving in / landlord's confirmation of residence from yourlandlord or landlady. If you are moving into an apartment that you own, the confirmation of moving in is made on the form as a self-declaration.
- If you are moving in from abroad, the registration office may require your marriage certificate or, in the case of children, the birth certificate. In the case of foreign documents, a translation by a state-recognized translator is also required. The original document and translation must be submitted.
If a minor moves from one legal guardian to another due to a physical separation of the legal guardians, the following declaration of consent must be submitted: Consent to relocation/registration
- Completed registration form (except for automated registration register)
- At least one proof of identity:
- Identity card
- Temporary identity card
- Replacement identity card
- Recognized and valid passport
- Recognized and valid passport replacement document
- If you are moving into a rented property: landlord's confirmation of residence or corresponding allocation feature
- If moving into residential property: notarized purchase contract or extract from the land register
- For persons under guardianship: written power of attorney or guardian's certificate
- If represented by another person: written power of attorney and identification documents of the person to be registered
- If moving from abroad: last residential address in Germany (registration confirmation, date of moving in and out)
- For spouses, life partners and family members with the same move-in dates: Date of moving in as well as previous and current residences
- The competent authority may request the submission of further documents to verify the information (for example: marriage certificate, birth certificate)
If the legal guardians are separated and the minor wishes to register with the other legal guardian, the legal guardian with whom he/she does not live must give his/her consent to the move/registration.
There are no fees.
You must register your new place of residence within 2 weeks of moving into your new home.
The processing time is usually 12 minutes.
