You do not need an appointment to visit
- to our Citizens' Service on the first floor of the Town Hall (applying for ID cards, re-registration, driving license matters, certificates of good conduct, vehicle registration). If there is a high volume of visitors, the Citizens' Service reserves the right to stop issuing numbers for the waiting area up to 60 minutes before closing time. In this case, please deal with your request on another day. You can make an appointment to exchange your driver's license online.
- to the welcome desk of the Foreigners' Registration Office on the 2nd floor of the Town Hall.
Sometimes our offices and facilities have to close at short notice. In these cases, we will inform you on the website www.erlangen.de/themenseite/service.
Dogs are generally not permitted. Exceptions are only possible if a dog is required for health and educational reasons (e.g. assistance or school dogs) or if the dog owner has been asked by the city to present their dog at the office.
