Re-registration

If you have moved to Beckum from another town or municipality (moving in) or are moving within Beckum, you must register/re-register at the Beckum or Neubeckum Citizens' Office within two weeks. Remember to bring the identity cards of all family members with you so that the new home address can be noted in these.

Landlord confirmation

According to § 23 of the Federal Registration Act, a written confirmation from the landlord must be submitted to fulfil the general registration obligation. Please bring this with you when you register or re-register. In the certificate, your landlord (or a person authorised by him/her) must confirm that you have actually moved in. Certificates issued in advance with a move-in date in the future cannot be recognised.

If you are the owner yourself, you make such a declaration for yourself.

Who is a landlord/landlady?
A landlord/landlady is anyone who actually and intentionally allows another person to use a flat (single room or several rooms), regardless of whether this is based on an effective legal relationship. As a rule, this is the flat owner. In the case of subletting, the landlord/landlady is the main tenant who allows another person to use the premises of a rented flat independently. The tenancy agreement must be presented to prove who the main tenant is.

A landlord's confirmation of residence is not required when deregistering or moving out.

Change of vehicle licence

If a motor vehicle is registered in your name, the registration certificate part 1 (vehicle registration document) must also be changed. If no change has been made to the vehicle registration certificate in the past, the change can be made at the citizens' office. If you are moving from another district and the foreign licence plate is not yet registered with the district of Warendorf, you must have the change made at the registration office of the district of Warendorf.
