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.

Read aloud

  • motorsport events with motor vehicles, vintage cars or motorcycles
  • Bicycle races, bike tours, triathlon events, folk walks and races
  • Journeys in a closed convoy
  • Removals
  • Street festivals, traditional events, markets
  •  

Racing with motor vehicles on public roads is prohibited.

Preconditions

Permission or exemption may only be granted for events organized and responsibly carried out by an organizer. The organizer must guarantee that the event will be carried out in accordance with the conditions and requirements of the licensing authority. A permit or exemption shall be granted upon written request. The road traffic authority examines the application and the submitted documents and hears the bodies to be involved (police and road construction authorities, forestry and nature conservation authorities).
The permit or exemption may be subject to conditions and obligations and to orders for traffic regulation and traffic-restricting measures. These measures will be coordinated in advance with the organizer.

Exceptions to prohibitions or limitations are possible in certain individual cases or generally for certain applicants. An exception may be granted only in cases of special urgency. Traffic safety must not be affected by the exemption. If necessary, this will be ensured by appropriate requirements and conditions.

Legal basis

Which documents are required?

  • Route map
  • written confirmation by the organizer that the organizer is aware that the event constitutes a special use within the meaning of § 8 Federal Highway Act. In particular, the declaration must confirm knowledge of the reimbursement claims under road law, according to which the licensee must reimburse all costs incurred by the carrier of the road construction burden due to the special use.
  • Social
  • if applicable, traffic sign plan and diversion plan if roads need to be closed

What are the fees?

Depending on the size of the event, the fee is between 10.20 euros and 2,301.00 euros. Information on the fees can be obtained from the competent authority.

In addition to the fee for granting the permit, fees for the special use of the roads may also apply.

What deadlines do I have to pay attention to?

The application must be submitted in good time, at least four weeks (at least two months for events that go beyond the territory of a road traffic authority) before the start of the event, and earlier for large events.

What else should I know?

If the event is to be granted beyond the district of the competent authority or an exception to the ban on racing on public roads, the Lower Saxony State Authority for Road Construction and Transport (Department 23) is responsible for approving the event.
