A change of address checklist is part of moving house. As soon as you leave your old place of residence and move somewhere else, your address logically changes as well. Postal submissions by authorities or online shops as well as insurances, services, and memberships must be re-registered to your new place of residence. Not to mention the legal registration regulations at the Residents’ Registration Office, where you have to meet special deadlines. We list what you should remember for a relocation checklist regarding changes of address.
Your change of address checklist for a relaxed move
The most important thing at the beginning: The first item on your relocation checklist for address changes should be to go to the residents’ registration office. As described in our moving checklist for offices, there are certain deadlines for re-registering. As a rule, you must report your move within two weeks at the latest. It is sufficient to visit the office in your new home. You will automatically be deregistered with the previous authority. If you move within a city, you will of course be re-registered with the same authority.
Another item on this change of address checklist is the forwarding order from Deutsche Post. In the interim period between your move, it can happen that letters or parcels are sent to the old address. To prevent this, you can fill out a corresponding application that guarantees that the mail will be forwarded. This is especially helpful if you only find the time to change your address with all the authorities, insurance companies, and shops afterwards. You can date the forwarding request for different periods of time, such as for six months after you move. You should apply for this form of forwarding your mail a few days before the move.
In connection with your postal availability, you should also consider your employer, school or kindergarten as well as clubs in your move checklist for address changes. A prior verbal announcement is usually sufficient for the time being to inform those around you about the move. To ensure that you can continue to receive bills, letters or even telephone calls, it is advisable to send a written notification with the new address and telephone data after the move.
The sooner, the better: relocation checklist for address changes
Use the time before your move to write yourself a detailed move checklist for the address changes. In the best case, you will be prepared for your move and will keep track of everything. Some providers do not require information on the change of address until after the move, such as online shops or some authorities, so these can quickly get lost in the stress of moving. The change of address checklist reminds you in good time to announce your move in public life.
