Personalausweis Änderung wegen Adressänderung

If your address changes, you must have the new address entered on your identity card/electronic residence permit.

If you move house, you must have the address on your ID card/electronic residence permit updated. In the case of an identity card or electronic residence permit, the change of address/residence is indicated by a sticker and the address is also changed on the ID chip.

Even if you move abroad, no longer have an address in Germany and your address abroad has not yet been determined, your ID card/electronic residence permit must be changed. The address sticker will then state that you no longer have an address in Germany.
