einfache Melderegisterauskunft

Do you need the current address or certain other information about a person you know? It is possible to submit an application to the registration authority for the provision of a population register information.

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.

Whether a registration authority provides you with information about the data of the person you are looking for is at their discretion. Simple information will not be provided if an information block has been entered in the register or if the registration authority has reason to believe that this could pose a risk to the interests of the person concerned or another person worthy of protection.

• The person you are looking for must be clearly identifiable on the basis of the information you provide. This means that you must already have data on the person concerned. This is usually the first and last name, date of birth, gender or last known address.
• If you use the data for commercial purposes, you must provide this information.
• When making the request, you must declare that you will not use the data for advertising or address trading purposes or that you have the consent of the data subject to do so.
• If you send the request to the registration authority for the purposes of advertising or address trading and the registration authority does not have your consent, you must declare to the registration authority that you have consent.
• The registration authority may require you to present the consent of the person concerned.
• There must be no information block in the registration register.
