RESIDENT REGISTRATION OFFICE

In Germany, all residents and visitors whose stay exceeds 3 months must register with the authorities.

Once you have found a room or apartment, you must register at your local resident registration office within one week. If you move to other accommodations within Munich or move out of Munich, you must register your new address or notify the office that you are leaving Munich.
If you move, please make sure that you provide the necessary institutions (TUM, your insurance company, etc.) with your new address.

To complete this registration you will need:

• your passport
• a special registration form which can be downloaded from the Internet or is available free of charge at the registration office.
