Alters- und Ehejubiläum

As there is no entitlement to the aforementioned service, there are only legal bases within the administration to ensure the transfer of data:

Congratulations on retirement and marriage anniversaries

The Prime Minister addresses married couples

• on their diamond wedding anniversary (60 years of marriage),
• on their Iron Wedding Anniversary (65 years of marriage),
• the Wedding of Grace (70 years of marriage)
• and crown jewel weddings (75th wedding anniversary)

as well as those celebrating their 100th, 105th and every further year of life with a certificate.

The Federal President congratulates them on their 100th, 105th and every subsequent birthday as well as on the occasion of their 65th, 70th and 75th wedding anniversaries.

Preparations for celebrating anniversaries of old age and marriage are made by the municipality in which the couple or the person celebrating their anniversary resides. The certificate is drawn up on the basis of the population register by virtue of office. The State Chancellery is responsible for preparing the certificate presented by the Prime Minister, while the Federal Office of Administration is responsible for preparing the certificate presented by the Federal President.

There is therefore no need for you as a citizen to take action.

These are benefits to which there is no entitlement.
