Arrange appointments
Stand: 20.06.2024
The responsible offices can thus prepare individually for your visit in advance.
Communication between you and your local council has changed dramatically. Whereas you used to come to our offices during opening hours to sort something out, you can now only do so by appointment. This means we can
- shorten or even avoid waiting times for you and
- prepare for the appointment with you individually in advance.
You can arrange your (preferred) appointment with some offices online. This is practical, easy and quick. Of course, you can also get your appointment by phone. And many concerns or inquiries can also be answered or dealt with over the phone.
No appointment is necessary for two areas
You can visit the 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) and the welcome desk of the immigration office without an appointment.
Here: Opening hours and availability of the Citizens' Service
Here: Opening hours and availability of the welcome desk of the Foreigners' Registration Office
Sometimes our offices have to close at short notice or their availability is limited. In these cases, we will inform you via our service portal.
Free travel on buses in the city center
Since January 1, 2024, it has been "free travel" on all bus lines within the free inner city area of Erlangen. It is easy to see which bus stops are located in the city center area: The names of the stops are highlighted in yellow and orange on the signs. If you want a ride, you can simply hop on. You do not need to buy a ticket.
