Melderegisterauskunft Erteilung einfach

As part of a simple registration register information request, the registration authority will provide you with the surname, first names, doctor's degree and current addresses of the person you are looking for. If the person is deceased, you will be informed of this.

Simple information from the register of residents will not be provided if there is an information block or a conditional blocking notice and the provision of information could put the person concerned at risk. If the person could not be clearly identified, no information will be provided either.

To obtain information from the population register, it is necessary to provide sufficient information about the person in question so that they can be clearly identified and confusion can be ruled out. The required information is

• family name
• Former names
• first names
• date of birth
• gender or
• an address.

If the person cannot be clearly identified, neutral information will be provided.

The information can also be provided automatically.

You must identify yourself.

You can identify yourself with:

• your identity card or
• your passport.

The following requirements must be met:

• the person you are looking for must be clearly identifiable from the information you provide; this means that you must already have data on the data subject; this is usually
  • the first name and surname
  • the date of birth
  • the gender or
  • the last known address.
• If you use the data for commercial purposes, you must state this.
• You may not use the data for advertising or address trading purposes and must declare this when making the request

The municipal register of residents only contains data on natural persons. Information on companies or commercial enterprises can be obtained from the trade register.

It is possible that the data of the person you are looking for is subject to an information block. The registration authority will then check in each individual case whether your interest in the information outweighs the confidentiality interest of the person you are looking for.

If you require more detailed information, you can apply for extended information from the population register. To do so, you must provide evidence of your legitimate interest.
