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.

License plates Allocation of desired number plates


For some years now, it has been possible to obtain a desired license plate. Many competent authorities now offer an online reservation. This allows you to select the appropriate license plate regardless of opening hours.

It can be reserved for:

  • Car/Truck
  • Motorcycle
  • Seasonal and classic car license plates

Who should I contact?

The responsibility lies with the district and the independent city in which you have your residence.

The main residence according to the identity card is decisive. In the case of legal persons, it is the registered office of the main establishment or the registered office of the branch.
