Frequently Asked Questions

I want to get married in Germany. Where can I get some advice before I get married?
Those who want to get married can get advice from the registrar’s office. The documents you need to get married will vary, because the national law of the country of origin has to be considered when getting married. Go to the registry office in person (during consulting hours, no appointment necessary) to get advice and a list of all the documents you need.
Where can I get family documents?
The registry offices can issue international birth, marriage and death certificates on request
(no extra charge). International certificates are written in nine languages.

How do I get a place for my child in a day-care facility or kindergarten?
Children aged 0 to 6 can visit a day-care facility or kindergarten where they, together with other children, are cared for by educators. If you have a child of this age, you should contact your Social Service Centre. They will try to get a place for your child in a day-care facility or kindergarten in corporation with the municipality. Please see the chapter ‘School and Kindergarten’.

The parental leave allowance is a government benefit for families after the birth of a
child. If parents interrupt or restrict their careers to care for their child, the allowance
can make up for the loss of income to a certain extent.
