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.

House number: Fixing


House numbers are assigned by the competent authority on the basis of building applications, notifications of construction measures or at the request of the owners. Street names and house numbers are used for orientation in the city or municipality area and fulfil an ordering function for all personal or location-related data.

In order to be able to integrate new buildings into an existing house number sequence, it may be necessary to change existing house numbers.

The control of whether a house number has been affixed by the owner of the property/house is the responsibility of the competent authority as the general regulatory authority. The local house number signage will also be checked in case of complaints. The property owner will then be asked to provide a visible house number.

Two equivalent systems are practiced for the arrangement of house numbers:

  • The so-called Paris system with a kind of zipper system (the numbering starts at the end of the street facing the city center on the left side with 1 and on the right side with 2 and then runs separately into even and odd to the other end of the street, although it often happens due to the different size of the individual plots, that numbers that are numerically adjacent to each other are not opposite each other in reality).
  • The so-called Berlin system with circumferential house numbering (the number sequence begins with 1 on one side of the street, continues without interruption to the end of the street and then back on the other side of the street).

In Lower Saxony, house numbers are usually assigned according to the Paris system.
