Procedure

You must register your apartment with the relevant office. You can do this

  • informally in writing
  • fill out a form or
  • use an online service.

The form is usually available in the municipalities. You can also download it from the Internet.

Tip: If you are no longer required to pay the contribution, for example because another resident in the apartment already pays the broadcasting contribution, you can deregister with the contribution service.

Legal bases

More information

There is no obligation to pay contributions for a vacant apartment. The prerequisite is,

  • that it is not occupied by anyone,
  • that there is no rental agreement for it and
  • that no person is registered at the residents' registration office.
