Authority-ready application
Application type & authority

Your authority, your form.

You know your residence permit (Aufenthaltstitel) best. Select what applies to you and type in your city — we'll show the forms used by your competent immigration authority (Ausländerbehörde).

1Which permit are you renewing?
2Your city or immigration authority
Type your city or district — one click selects the form.

Legal notice: civitas. does not choose your residence title or the applicable legal basis for you — that is your decision and your authority's. We provide form-filling assistance and prepare the form you selected in language and structure — no individual legal advice within the meaning of the German Legal Services Act (RDG).

How it works

One entry in, authority-ready out.

You choose your application type and the matching form (Vordruck) yourself. We handle the structured, translated preparation — depending on how your authority accepts applications.

01 · Step

Choose application type.

You yourself select which permit you are renewing and which official form your immigration authority (Ausländerbehörde) uses. We make no pre-selection.

2 minutes · free
02 · Step

Enter your details.

A multilingual questionnaire collects your information and supporting documents — passport, permit, registration, income, health insurance. Your progress is saved automatically.

Pausable · saved automatically
03 · Step

Fully prepared.

You receive the completed form plus a checklist — or step-by-step guidance through your authority's online portal, in your language.

PDF + document checklist
Two paths

Depending on how your authority accepts applications.

Some immigration authorities accept a completed paper/PDF form. Others accept applications only through their own online portal. Once you have chosen your authority, you automatically see the right path for you.

Official form, filled in
We fill in your authority's official form (Vordruck) with your details. You receive it as an authority-ready PDF with a document checklist — ready to print, sign, and submit.

Portal Guide

Online portal, with translated guidance
If your authority accepts applications only online, we guide you through the portal step by step — every German field explained in your language. You enter your details yourself and submit yourself; we translate and guide.

Frequently asked questions

What you should know beforehand.

Short and without the fine print — what civitas. does, what your authority decides, and what it costs.

Is this legal advice?
No. civitas. is a software service provider and not a law firm. We prepare the official form you have selected in a structured, multilingual way. We do not provide a legal assessment of your individual case or representation before the authority.
Who decides on my renewal?
Solely your competent immigration authority (Ausländerbehörde). A carefully prepared, complete application reduces queries and delays caused by missing or unclear information.
What does it cost — and what do I pay the authority?
The civitas. preparation costs 99 € one-time. Separately from this, your immigration authority charges a government fee (usually 93–100 €), which you pay directly to the authority — not through us.
Which documents do I need?
Typically: passport, current residence permit (Aufenthaltstitel), registration certificate (Meldebescheinigung), proof of income, and proof of health insurance. The questionnaire guides you through the list that fits your case; the exact requirements are determined by your authority.
In which languages?
German, English, Turkish, Arabic, Russian, and Ukrainian. The official form remains in German (an authority requirement) — you receive the explanation of every field in your language.
Complex case

For criminal records, unclear residence status, discretionary decisions or a looming refusal, legal advice is the right path — a service civitas. does not provide. For a legal assessment of your individual case, please contact a law firm.
