Apartment registration in Wiesbaden

Current notice
Due to maintenance work, the online service "Online-Meldung am Wohnsitz" will not be available on Wednesday, 28.05.2025 from 7 am to presumably 4 pm.

If you move into an apartment in Wiesbaden, you must register at the citizens' office or a local administration office.

If you are under the age of 16, the registration is the responsibility of the person whose home you are moving into. Newborns born in Germany only need to be registered if they are moving into a home other than that of their parents or mother. If you are of legal age and a guardian or caretaker has been appointed for you who can determine your residence, this person is responsible for registration.

If you are moving your main residence within Germany, you can register online. To do this, you will need a German ID card or eID card with the online ID function (opens in a new tab) and PIN activated (click here (opens in a new tab)).
If you do not have the online ID function, you can register using the Video-Ident procedure.

When registering with the registration office, you must present a written confirmation from the landlord/landlady or a person authorized by him/her(landlord confirmation (opens in a new tab)).

We are happy to be there for you in person, but only work by appointment. Book an appointment quickly and easily online in the appointment calendar at the Citizens' Office or the local administration offices.
