Translation
Where must you register when you move within Germany?
- A at the registration office ✓ Correct answer
- B at the registry office
- C at the public order office
- D at the trade office
Explanation
When you move within Germany, you must register your new address at the local registration office, often called the Bürgeramt or Einwohnermeldeamt. The registry office handles births, marriages and deaths, a different task entirely.
Tips
- Moving means the registration office, not the registry office, the two names sound alike but are different.
- The public order office and the trade office deal with unrelated matters, not address changes.
