    Book an appointment at Bürgeramt in Munich

    We strongly recommend that you make an appointment at the Bürgeramt before your visit. If there is no free appointment on that day (which is the rule), you will be sent home. Registration is mandatory within 14 days after moving in.

    I. How to book an appointment at Bürgeramt in Munich

    There are three ways you can make an appointment at a Bürgeramt Munich. Unfortunately all the options are only available in German.

    We recommend the online appointment booking. We’ll help you!

    Book an appointment online (recommended)
    1. The electronic appointment system offers you the possibility to make an appointment with a public authority online.
    2. Munich is growing at a rapid pace and with it the demands on the administration. Munich citizens’ offices have been prepared for this challenge in terms of personnel. The aim is to achieve the goal of providing every customer with an appointment at the Bürgeramt within 14 days if required.
    3. It is also worthwhile to check the calendar of appointments repeatedly for free dates. If the daily organisation in the Citizen’s Offices allows it, new additional appointments are set up every day, which you can book for your concern – even at short notice.
    4. In case of requests with a legal deadline (e.g. in case of registration/change of residence), the confirmation of the booked appointment is already considered as proof for the adherence to the deadline. You are not committing an administrative offence, even if your request is only processed at the Bürgeramt after the deadline has been exceeded.

    Book an appointment by telephone

    Bürgertelefon 115 – the central, telephone access to the Munich administration

    Simply dial 089-115 without area code from a Munich landline or your mobile phone in the Munich area. The Munich 089-115 Service Center can now also be reached directly from outside Munich by calling 089-115 (from the fixed network and from many mobile networks).

    You can reach Bürgertelefon 089-115Monday to Friday from 08:00 to 18:00 hours.

    Book an appointment in Person

    We recommend that you book an appointment in advance online or by telephone and do not go to the Bürgerbüro without an appointment.

    If today’s online appointments are fully booked, this also applies to appointments at local residents’ registration offices on site. In these cases, please switch to another citizens’ office in the city or postpone your visit to another day.

    The number of free capacities (still) available on the day of the appointment is naturally reduced more and more towards the end of opening hours. Therefore, it is possible that, depending on the number of visitors, a visit without an appointment may not be possible on the same day.

    Should a visit to a citizens’ office nevertheless be necessary urgently and without an appointment being made, the staff in all citizens’ offices will in any case make a proposal for clarification of the respective concerns in a personal meeting.
