Each agency covers a set of addresses, so start with your city
Registering is easiest online or on the free national phone line, but the local Agentur für Arbeit is the office that advises you afterwards. Start with your city: you will see which branch covers your address, whether you can drop in or need to book, and why you should use only one way of registering.
Augsburg
Wertachstr. 28, 86153 Augsburg
Tell the agency online or by phone that your job is ending, though this alone does not start unemployment benefit.
Prepare your expected employment end date, qualifications, work history and job goals. Visit Wertachstr. 28, 86153 Augsburg; tram 2 stops at Senkelbach and tram 4 at Plärrer. Send letters to Agentur für Arbeit Augsburg, 86218 Augsburg, using the dedicated postal address rather than the visitor address.
