Not super frequently but it happens. The classic one is when moving apartments (register apartment, update ID card, update car registration, potentially get a new local parking permit). I also got the timing for my ID card and passport synced so I can do them in one visit.
In the last year I moved twice and will likely move once more in the next 12 months (temporary places, looking to buy something) so I’m a bit more appreciative right now.
- NeoTar 4y agoThe trouble with Germany is the need to do too much in person, and thus too much needs to be done on a local level. The UK isn't a great example for much, but for instance: * Passport application - controlled centrally. Has been done by post for years. Now available online. * Update car registration - controlled centrally. Has been done by post for years. Now available online. * Register to vote (closest thing the UK has to the anmeldung) - controlled locally. Done by posting or emailing a form to your local council.
