Registry offices for birth, marriage and death certificates

Your home city may not be the right one: the place of the event decides

Choose the city that holds the entry you need. Each office shows how it takes orders, whether online, by post or at the counter, and what proof of identity or family relationship to bring. Delivery and payment rules differ, so check them before you order, and confirm opening times and booking rules before you travel to an office.

    Standesamt Bremen-Mitte

    Hollerallee 79, 28209 Bremen

    Send the order form by post or email, or arrange a personal pickup if you would rather not send an ID copy.

    Provide identity evidence, normally a copy of both sides of your ID card or your passport; unnecessary details such as height or eye colour may be obscured. The city recommends encrypted transmission of ID copies; postal submission is also available. A representative needs written authority and identity evidence for both people. Include evidence of your relationship or legal interest where required, the intended use for any exemption, and the certificate format you need.

  • Bremen

    Standesamt Bremen-Nord

    Gerhard-Rohlfs-Straße 62, 2. Etage, 28757 Bremen

    Send a written request or book a visit, and check first that the northern office holds your record.

    Use the correct certificate-order form and ask which identity and entitlement documents apply. Follow secure-transmission guidance for ID copies. DE-Mail works only with a DE-Mail account. Confirm collection or postal delivery, fee and any exemption with the registry.
