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.

Disaster prevention


Civil protection is used when security measures are no longer guaranteed due to other legislation.

In addition to the fire brigades, private aid organisations and the Federal Agency for Technical Relief are deployed in particular. The training and further education in civil protection builds on the specialist training of Lower Saxony's fire brigades and aid organisations. As a central training facility, the state has set up the Lower Saxony Academy for Fire and Disaster Protection (NABK) with locations in Celle and Loy.

Who should I contact?

The responsibility lies with the districts and independent cities.

For measures for radiation protection and flood prevention, responsibility remains with the responsible department, even in the event of a disaster. In operation, supplementary administrative assistance by the civil protection agencies is possible.

For general questions, please contact the fire brigade, the Federal Agency for Technical Relief or the aid organisations in your municipality.

In emergencies, dial 112.
