After moving to Augsburg, you are required to register with the registration authorites. This has to be done within two weeks. In Germany, each citizen is obliged to register, including Germans.

From August 1st 2026 the registration can be done in one of the 5 "Buergerbueros" of the city. Therefore, you need to make an appointment online:

Appointments can be made 4 weeks in advance!

Important! Until July 15th, the registration can still be done through our office via e-mail: service@aaa.uni-augsburg.de

To do so, please send the following documents by e-mail, fully completed and signed, to the Service Center of Academic Immigration which will forward your documents - after checking them briefly - to the Foreigners' Registration Office of the City of Augsburg:

• passport (including your visa, if applicable)
• If you have entered the country without a visa, please enclose proof of the reason for your stay (e.g. admission to a study program or language course, internship contract, etc.)
• if obtained: your residence permit (including the green "Zusatzblatt")
• registration form  fill-in help
• confirmation of the landlord/provider of housing space (" Wohnungsgeberbestätigung")

The provider of housing space is either your landlord, a person mandated by your landlord or the main tenant if you are a subtenant.
