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.

Development plan


Before you make more detailed plans of how you will build on a plot of land that you have acquired or intend to acquire, you should clarify what is in the associated development plan.

The qualified development plan determines in a legally binding manner which structural and other facilities are permitted on a property. Determinations are made, inter alia:

  • the type of structural use (e.g. residential, mixed, commercial area),
  • the extent of structural use (e.g. number of storeys and floor areas, height, number of full storeys),
  • the construction method (open or closed construction),
  • to the buildable plot area
  • to the local traffic areas.

The simple development plan, which does not meet the requirements of a qualified development plan, contains only individual stipulations as binding regulations and is supplemented by the provisions of §§ 34 and 35 of the Building Code (BauGB), which are to be applied as support.

Who should I contact?

A development plan is adopted by the municipality as a statute. Thereafter, it becomes legally binding by publication.
For more information, you can contact the planning office of your municipality or the building supervisory authority of the municipality or district.
