If you are under the age of 16, your new main residence 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 main residence 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.
Your landlord is obliged to confirm in writing that you have moved into the new home. Present this certificate to the registration office. Confirmation from the landlord is also possible electronically. In this case, you will receive an allocation feature which is used to process the confirmation.
If your municipality is already connected to the electronic residence registration online service, the registration can be carried out both by single persons of legal age and by families. In the case of a joint move from one home to another, an adult person also registers their spouse/partner and/or underage children.
