The country’s paperwork
A residential lease runs for an indefinite period, though a fixed term is allowed if the landlord states the reason in writing when signing, such as needing the home for themselves or family, carrying out works, or letting it to an employee. (§ 575 BGB)
A home let only for temporary use is exempt from much of the tenant protection normally in place. The rules on rent at the start of the lease, rent increases, and protection when the lease ends do not apply. (§ 549 BGB)
The same exemption applies to a room that is part of the home where the landlord lives and that the landlord has mostly furnished, unless it is let for permanent use to the tenant with their family or household. (§ 549 BGB)
The deposit (Kaution) cannot exceed three months' rent without operating costs. Tenants may pay it in three equal monthly instalments, and landlords must keep it separate from their own assets, with any interest earned going to the tenant. (§ 551 BGB)
Whoever moves into a home in Germany must register (Anmeldung) with the registration office (Meldebehörde) within two weeks of moving in. (§ 17 BMG)
For the Anmeldung, the landlord must confirm the move-in in writing (Wohnungsgeberbestätigung) within the same two weeks. (§ 19 BMG)
Whoever leaves Germany with no new home in the country must deregister (Abmeldung) within two weeks of moving out; this can be done at the earliest one week before. (§ 17 BMG)
After the Anmeldung, the tax authorities assign the tax identification number (Steuer-ID). (§ 139b Abgabenordnung)
Everyone who lives in Germany is required to have health insurance. (§ 193 VVG)
Every home pays the broadcasting fee (Rundfunkbeitrag) of 18.36 € a month per home, not per person; in a shared flat, one person pays for all. (Rundfunkbeitragsstaatsvertrag)
