Anmeldung form filler

Answer the questions in English. You get your city’s official registration form, filled in German and ready to print and sign, plus a checklist for the appointment.

Form help, no legal advice. The tool does not check whether you have to register or which home counts as your main home. Our guide explains the rules: Anmeldung in Germany

1. Your new home

Official form of Berlin, version ANM-Blanko, retrieved 14 October 2026. Original PDF of the city

The tool fills the official form of this city. More cities follow if the tool proves useful.

The day you moved in, as on your landlord confirmation. You have to register within two weeks of this date.

Add floor, flat number or “c/o name” if your name is not on the letterbox.

This home is your

Homes abroad do not count. Main home means the home you mostly live in if you have more than one in Germany; married couples and families count the home they mostly share.

2. Where you come from

Besides the new and the previous home. The office then needs the supplementary sheet (Beiblatt), which you fill at the appointment.

4. People who register

Person 1 (You)

As in your passport or ID card.

Only if different from your family name, for example a name before marriage.

In the order of your passport, separated by spaces.

List every nationality you hold, German included.

Your legal status. Living together without marriage or registered partnership counts as single.

This answer decides church tax (Kirchensteuer). Members of the Catholic and Protestant churches and of Jewish communities pay it on top of income tax. Membership usually comes from baptism or formally joining, also abroad. For another community, choose “Other” if it is a public-law corporation in Germany, otherwise “None”. Your community can tell you which applies.

As printed in the document, for example the passport office or embassy.

I use the doctoral title “Dr.” in Germany · Religious or artist name

Only a doctorate you may carry in Germany goes on the register. For a foreign doctorate the office may ask for the certificate and a translation.

Only if your passport or ID card shows one.
