Cancellation of registered address

Any person who moves out of their primary residence in Ostfildern and moves abroad, and anyone who moves out of a secondary residence in the city must appear in person within two weeks of the move at the registration authority (Meldebehörde) for their primary residence, and cancel the registration of residence for the address from which the person is moving.

If the city administration maintains an electronic register of residents, it is not necessary for you to fill out the registration form. You can visit the registration authority in person and confirm that your information is correct by signing a printed document.

It is not necessary for the owner of your residence to confirm that you have moved out.

The earliest that a cancellation of registration of address can be effected is one week before  the move.

Documents required

Personal identity card (German Personalausweis)

The original passport or national identity document for each person whose registration of address is being canceled

Cost

There is no fee for canceling your registration of address.

Further information

As proof of cancellation of your registered address, you will receive a document confirming the cancellation.

In certain cases the cancellation of registered address can be carried out by a statutory representative, if the registration form has been completely filled out and signed by the person whose registered address is being canceled. Please see the form available for download.

We also offer a checklist to help make your move go smoothly.
