Resident register, extended information from the resident register

Through an extended registration information, you can obtain comprehensive information about a person, such as previous addresses, marital status and nationality.

  •  

Detailed description

In order to receive more detailed information about specific individuals, you must credibly demonstrate a legitimate interest in doing so.

You will receive information about the person's surname, first name, doctoral degree, current address and, if deceased, a reference to this.

In addition, you will receive information about previous names, date and place of birth and, if born abroad, also the country, marital status (limited to whether or not married or in a civil partnership), current nationality, previous addresses, move-in and move-out dates, surname and first names and address of legal representative, surname and first names and address of spouse or civil partner, date and place of death and, if died abroad, also the country.

The registration authority will immediately inform the person concerned about the provision of the extended registration information, stating your name as the person making the request. You can prevent this by convincing the registration authority that you have a legal interest in not informing the person concerned. A special reason is the assertion of legal claims.
