Which place to enter?

The location is used to determine the responsible office for the selected administrative service. In most cases you can enter your place of residence to find the competent authority. However, there are also cases in which a different location must be specified. Here are some examples:

Birth certificateYou want to get married and need a birth certificate. You live in Hanover, but you were born in Celle. You must therefore state your place of birth, i.e. Celle.

Business registrationYou would like to register a business in Braunschweig. Your place of residence is Hanover. You must therefore state the location of your future business, i.e. Braunschweig.

Apply for a building permitYou would like to build a house in Wunstorf and therefore apply for a building permit. Her place of residence is currently Hanover. You must indicate the place where the house is to be built. In this case it is Wunstorf.

Apply for an express passport

Read aloud

If you need a passport urgently, you can apply for it using the express order procedure. If the passport manufacturer receives the passport application by 12:00 noon, the delivery time for your new passport is usually 3 working days until it is ready for collection from the domestic authority. You pay a surcharge for this.

The express passport is a regular passport with an accelerated ordering and production process. If you need a passport immediately, you can apply for a temporary passport. However, this does not have all the functions of the regular passport and has a significantly shorter period of validity.

If you are traveling with children, you can also apply for their passports express.

You can apply for your passport using the express procedure at your local citizens' office at your main place of residence. You can also make such an application at any other citizens' office if you have an important reason. There is an additional surcharge for this.
