Prerequisites
To extend your registration certificate, you will need: • German citizenship or a work permit valid for Germany • proof of being of legal age • proof of health advice • a registration certificate or, alternatively, a certificate of a delivery address and • a current photo.
Documents required
• Identity card, passport, passport replacement or ID card replacement
• Current photo/photograph without border, 45 mm high x 35 mm wide
• Current registration certificate / confirmation of registration (not older than 3 months) for your place of residence or main residence or, if you do not have a permanent residence, proof of a delivery address.
• If you are not an EU citizen, you must provide documents proving that you have permission to work in Germany.

Please note
The extension of a registration certificate can also be done in Hamburg if the previous registration certificate was issued in another federal state. The registration certificate or the alias certificate and certificate of health advice must always be carried when practicing prostitution.
To deregister or return the registration certificate or alias certificate, you must appear in person. Deregistration or the return of the registration/alias certificate is not legally required. The return of documents that are still valid will be confirmed to you in writing.
Deadlines
The extension of an activity as a prostitute or as a prostitute must take place before the validity of the existing registration certificate or alias certificate expires.
