Citizenship card: Issuance
Formal proof of possession of German citizenship is provided by means of a citizenship certificate. This certificate is required for certain legal transactions or legal relationships (e.g. adoption, civil servant).
Preconditions:
Before issuing a citizenship card or certificate of legal status as a German, the citizenship authority must check:
- whether and by what means you have acquired German citizenship / legal status as a German,
- whether and by what means you have lost your German citizenship / legal status as a German.
In addition to your personal information, information about the persons from whom you derive your nationality is also required. You can find out which persons these are in each case on the application form.
Please seek advice from the authority when filling out the application if there are any uncertainties.
Who should I contact?
The responsibility lies with the district and the independent city of citizenship authority in which you have your residence.
