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.

Social Security: Determination - Compulsory Insurance


As an employer, you are obliged to register your employees with social security.

Social security is divided into the following areas:

  • the statutory pension insurance (GRV)
  • the statutory health insurance (GKV)
  • the statutory accident insurance (GUV)
  • social long-term care insurance (SPV)

Sometimes, however, there are uncertainties about the obligation to insure, e.g. if it is not clear whether a newly hired employee has the status of an employee (employee) or a freelancer (self-employed). In this case, you (and/or your employee) must request that an inquiry procedure be carried out.

As part of the procedure, it is clarified on a case-by-case basis whether insurance is compulsory.

In this way, you may be able to protect yourself from considerable additional contribution claims in the future.
